Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Hood, CA.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when someone is withdrawing from substance use because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Hood patients are closely monitored for withdrawal symptoms that could bring about health complications or even death in more severe cases. a person suffering with alcoholism for example may need to be observed closely and probably administered specific prescription medications that would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detox facility will minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact process for each individual in detox, because of the unique health differences that each patient exhibits when entering the detoxification facility. An individual who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another person may require 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 individuals who should to go to an actual drug and alcohol rehabilitation program once detox is finished. Many detoxification facilities work with drug rehabilitation programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is only the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for people in recovery.
