Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Luther, IA.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Luther individuals are closely watched for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could bring about health risks or even death in more serious cases. Someone with alcoholism for instance will need to be watched closely and possibly given certain medications that would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detoxification center will ensure their safety.

There is not an exact practice for each patient in detox, because of the unique differences that each individual exhibits when entering detox. An individual who is basically physically and mentally healthy may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different person may need intensive treatment and intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for clients who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol recovery program once detoxification is finished. Most detox facilities work with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for recovering addicts.
