Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Homer, IN.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from substance use considering there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Homer clients are closely checked for withdrawal symptoms which could bring about health complications or even death in more serious instances. Someone with alcoholism for example may need to be observed closely and probably administered certain prescription medications that will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detoxification center can ensure their safety.

There is not an exact protocol for each client in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each patient exhibits when entering the detoxification facility. Someone who is basically physically and mentally healthy may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different patient may need to have intensive care and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for patients who should to attend an actual drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility once detoxification is complete. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive rehabilitation plan for recovering addicts.
