Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Hanover, IN.

Inpatient detoxification is vital when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol considering withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Hanover patients can be closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may cause health risks or even death in more serious cases. a person with alcoholism for instance will need to be observed closely and likely given certain prescription medications that works to prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can bring about very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification center will ensure their safety.

There is not an exact protocol for each person in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each person presents when arriving to the detoxification facility. A person who is basically in good health may go through detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much medical intervention, while a different patient may require intensive supervision and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to treatment for patients who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol recovery center once detox is finished. Most detox facilities collaborate with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in an overall recovery plan for people in recovery.
