Inpatient detoxification is vital when an individual is withdrawing from substance use due to the fact that there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Santa Monica individuals can be closely watched for withdrawal symptoms which could bring about health risks or even death in more serious cases. an individual with alcoholism for instance would need to be closely monitored and probably given certain medications that works to prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may cause very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification facility would keep them safe.
There is not an exact process for each individual in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each individual presents when entering the detoxification facility. A person who is otherwise in good health may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much intervention, while a different patient may need to have comprehensive oversight and intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to treatment for individuals who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol rehab facility once detoxification is complete. Many detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in an overall rehabilitation plan for recovering addicts.
