Inpatient detoxification is recommended when someone is withdrawing from substance use due to the fact that there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Rancho Mirage clients are closely watched for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could cause health complications or even death in more severe instances. Someone suffering with alcoholism for example would need to be observed closely and likely administered certain prescription medications that will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that could bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and medical professionals in an inpatient detoxification facility would ensure their safety.
There isn't an exact protocol for each client in detox, because of the unique health differences that each individual exhibits when entering detox. Someone who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much intervention, while a different patient may require comprehensive care and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for clients who should to take part in an actual drug and alcohol treatment facility once detox is complete. Many detoxification facilities work with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in a much more comprehensive rehabilitation plan for recovering addicts.
