Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Paton, IA.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Paton individuals are closely observed for withdrawal symptoms which may cause health complications or even death in more serious cases. an individual suffering with alcoholism for instance will need to be closely monitored and likely given certain medications that would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that could cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification center will keep them safe.

There isn't an exact process for each person in detox, because of the unique health differences that each patient exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. An individual who is basically physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much intervention, while another patient may need to have intensive treatment and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for individuals who need to take part in an actual substance abuse rehabilitation facility once detox is finished. Many detoxification facilities work with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in an overall treatment plan for recovering addicts.
