Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - North Miami, FL.

Inpatient detoxification is essential when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in North Miami individuals can be closely observed for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could bring about health complications or even death in more serious cases. a person with alcoholism for instance may need to be watched closely and likely administered certain prescription drugs that would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that could bring about very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detox center will keep them safe.

There isn't an exact protocol for each patient in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each person presents when entering the detoxification facility. An individual who is basically in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another patient may need to have intensive treatment and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to treatment for individuals who need to take part in an actual drug and alcohol treatment program once detoxification is finished. Most detox 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 recovery plan for recovering addicts.
