Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Iota, LA.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when an individual is withdrawing from substance use considering there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Iota clients can be closely watched for withdrawal symptoms which may cause health complications or even death in more serious cases. Someone suffering with alcoholism for example would need to be watched closely and likely given certain prescription medications which will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may cause very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification center will ensure their safety.

There is not an exact protocol for each client in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each patient exhibits when arriving to detox. Someone who is basically physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much intervention, while a different patient may need intensive oversight and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for individuals who should to attend an actual substance abuse rehab facility once detoxification is complete. Many detoxification facilities work with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive rehabilitation plan for people in recovery.
