Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Big Pool, MD.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when someone is withdrawing from substance use considering withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Big Pool individuals can be closely monitored for withdrawal symptoms which could cause health complications or even death in more serious cases. Someone with alcoholism for instance would need to be observed closely and possibly given certain medications that would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that may bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detox center will minimize health risks.

There is not an exact practice for each client in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each patient exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. An individual who is otherwise in good health may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much intervention, while another patient may need intensive supervision and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for clients who need to take part in an actual drug and alcohol recovery program once detox is finished. Many detox facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is merely the first step in an overall treatment plan for recovering addicts.
