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

Inpatient detoxification is vital when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Lawndale clients are closely watched for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could cause health risks or even death in more serious instances. a person suffering with alcoholism for example would need to be observed closely and likely given certain medications that would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detox center would minimize health risks.

There is not an exact protocol for each individual in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each person exhibits when entering detox. Someone who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much intervention, while a different person may need to have comprehensive treatment and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for clients who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol treatment program once detoxification is finished. Many detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in an overall rehabilitation plan for people in recovery.
