Inpatient detoxification is recommended when someone is withdrawing from substance use considering there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Tuolumne individuals can be closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could bring about health complications or even death in more severe cases. a person with alcoholism for example will need to be watched closely and probably administered specific medications that works to prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detox facility can minimize health risks.
There is not an exact protocol for each patient in detox, because of the unique differences that each person exhibits when arriving to detox. Someone who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may go through detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much medical intervention, while a different patient may need to have intensive oversight and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for clients who need to go to an actual substance abuse recovery facility once detoxification is finished. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for people in recovery.
