Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Mountain Pass, CA.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Mountain Pass clients are closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may bring about health risks or even death in more serious cases. Someone struggling with alcoholism for example will need to be watched closely and possibly given specific prescription medications that will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that may bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification facility will keep them safe.

There is not an exact protocol for each client in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each individual exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. An individual who is basically in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while a different person may need to have comprehensive supervision and intervention for a couple weeks. Health safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for individuals who need to attend an actual substance abuse rehabilitation program once detoxification is complete. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for recovering addicts.
