Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Whelen Springs, AR.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when an individual is withdrawing from substance use because there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification facility in Whelen Springs clients are closely observed for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could cause health risks or even death in more serious cases. a person suffering with alcoholism for instance will need to be watched closely and possibly administered specific prescription medications that works to prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detoxification facility would minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact process for each person in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each person exhibits when arriving to detox. Someone who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different patient may require comprehensive oversight and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for patients who need to attend an actual substance abuse recovery program once detox is finished. Many detox facilities collaborate with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
