Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Homosassa Springs, FL.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Homosassa Springs clients are closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could bring about health risks or even death in more severe instances. a person with alcoholism for example would need to be observed closely and probably given certain prescription medications which will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detoxification center would minimize health risks.

There is not an exact process for each patient in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each person presents when entering the detoxification facility. An individual who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different patient may need intensive supervision and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to treatment for patients who need to attend an actual substance abuse recovery program once detox is finished. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for recovering addicts.
