Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Highwood, IL.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from substance use considering there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification facility in Highwood clients can be closely watched for withdrawal symptoms which may cause health complications or even death in more severe cases. Someone suffering with alcoholism for example will need to be watched closely and possibly given certain prescription medications which will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may cause very similar symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detox facility can keep them safe.

There is not an exact process for each person in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each patient presents when entering the detoxification facility. A person who is basically in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another patient may require intensive supervision and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to treatment for clients who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol recovery center once detoxification is complete. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for recovering addicts.
