Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Grundy Center, IA.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when a person is withdrawing from substance use because withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Grundy Center patients are closely watched for withdrawal symptoms which may bring about health complications or even death in more serious cases. an individual struggling with alcoholism for example would need to be closely monitored and probably given certain medications which will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detoxification facility can ensure their safety.

There isn't an exact protocol for each individual in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each person presents when arriving to the detoxification facility. An individual who is basically in good health may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much medical intervention, while a different patient may require comprehensive oversight and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for clients who need to attend an actual drug and alcohol rehab program once detoxification is finished. Many detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in an overall recovery plan for recovering addicts.
