Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Barclay, MD.

Inpatient detoxification is essential when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Barclay patients can be closely checked for withdrawal symptoms which could bring about health risks or even death in more severe cases. an individual with alcoholism for example would need to be closely monitored and probably given certain medications which works to prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detoxification facility can minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact process for each patient in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each person exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. Someone who is otherwise in good health may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much intervention, while another person may need comprehensive care and intervention for a couple weeks. Health safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for clients who need to take part in an actual drug and alcohol treatment program once detox is complete. Many detox facilities work with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, since detoxification is merely the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
