Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Pima, AZ.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Pima patients are closely checked for withdrawal symptoms that could cause health complications or even death in more serious cases. an individual suffering with alcoholism for example may need to be closely monitored and possibly administered certain prescription medications which will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that may bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and medical professionals in an inpatient detox center would ensure their safety.

There is not an exact process for each person in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each individual exhibits when entering the detoxification facility. Someone who is basically physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much intervention, while another patient may require intensive supervision and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to treatment for clients who need to take part in an actual substance abuse treatment program once detoxification is finished. Many detox facilities collaborate with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is merely the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
