Inpatient detoxification is essential when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Canaan patients are closely monitored for withdrawal symptoms that may cause health complications or even death in more serious cases. a person with alcoholism for instance would need to be closely monitored and probably administered specific prescription medications which will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detoxification center can ensure their safety.
There is not an exact protocol for each patient in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each person presents when entering the detoxification facility. A person who is basically physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while a different patient may need comprehensive supervision and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Health safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to treatment for patients who should to go to an actual substance abuse treatment center once detox is complete. Most detox facilities work with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in an overall recovery plan for people in recovery.
