Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Bishop, CA.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when a person is withdrawing from substance use because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Bishop clients are closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could cause health risks or even death in more serious instances. Someone suffering with alcoholism for instance will need to be watched closely and likely administered specific medications which will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detox center will ensure their safety.

There is not an exact protocol for each individual in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each patient presents when entering the detoxification facility. An individual who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may go through detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much intervention, while another patient may need intensive oversight and intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to treatment for patients who need to attend an actual substance abuse rehab facility once detoxification is complete. Most detox facilities work with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in an overall recovery plan for recovering addicts.
