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

Inpatient detoxification is vital when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Coulterville patients are closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may cause health complications or even death in more serious instances. an individual suffering with alcoholism for example would need to be closely monitored and probably administered certain medications which would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and medical professionals in the inpatient detoxification facility will minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact process for each individual in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each patient exhibits when entering detox. Someone who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another person may need comprehensive treatment and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for patients who need to attend an actual drug and alcohol treatment facility once detoxification is complete. Most detox facilities work with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is only the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
