Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Lucerne, CA.

Inpatient detoxification is vital when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Lucerne clients are closely monitored for withdrawal symptoms that may bring about health risks or even death in more severe instances. Someone suffering with alcoholism for instance would need to be closely monitored and likely administered certain medications that would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar symptoms, and medical professionals in the inpatient detoxification facility can minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact process for each client in detox, because of the unique health differences that each individual presents when arriving to the detoxification facility. A person who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much intervention, while another person may need to have intensive supervision and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to treatment for clients who should to attend an actual drug and alcohol rehab program once detoxification is finished. Many detox facilities work with drug rehabilitation programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is merely the first step in an overall rehabilitation plan for people in recovery.
