Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Melbourne, FL.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Melbourne patients are closely observed for withdrawal symptoms which could bring about health complications or even death in more serious cases. an individual with alcoholism for example would need to be watched closely and probably given certain prescription drugs which works to prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detox facility can keep them safe.

There isn't an exact protocol for each client in detox, because of the unique differences that each individual presents when entering 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 another patient may need comprehensive care and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to treatment for clients who should to go to an actual substance abuse recovery program once detox is complete. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation programs to make this transition possible, since detoxification is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for people in recovery.
