Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Essex, CT.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Essex clients are closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may cause health complications or even death in more serious instances. Someone suffering with alcoholism for example would need to be watched closely and likely given certain medications which would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may cause very similar withdrawal effects, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detoxification facility can keep them safe.

There isn't an exact practice for each client in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each individual exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. An individual who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may go through detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much intervention, while a different patient may require comprehensive care and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to treatment for clients who should to take part in an actual drug and alcohol recovery facility once detox is finished. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in an overall rehabilitation plan for recovering addicts.
