Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Le Mars, IA.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when someone is withdrawing from substance use due to the fact that withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Le Mars patients are closely observed for withdrawal symptoms which may cause health complications or even death in more severe instances. Someone with alcoholism for instance may need to be closely monitored and likely administered certain prescription medications that would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that may cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detoxification facility can ensure their safety.

There isn't an exact process for each person in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each individual presents when arriving to detox. An individual who is otherwise in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another person may require comprehensive treatment 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 patients who need to go to an actual substance abuse treatment program once detox is complete. Many detoxification facilities work with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is only the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
