Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Blackstone, IL.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification facility in Blackstone clients are closely watched for withdrawal symptoms that may bring about health risks or even death in more serious cases. Someone suffering with alcoholism for example would need to be observed closely and possibly given specific prescription medications which would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that could bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detox center will keep them safe.

There isn't an exact protocol for each patient in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each person exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. An individual who is basically physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different patient may need to have comprehensive care and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to treatment for patients who need to take part in an actual substance abuse recovery facility once detoxification is finished. Most detox facilities work with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is merely the first step in an overall treatment plan for recovering addicts.
