Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Bradley, ME.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification facility in Bradley individuals can be closely watched for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could bring about health risks or even death in more severe cases. Someone struggling with alcoholism for instance may need to be closely monitored and possibly given certain prescription drugs which would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detoxification facility will ensure their safety.

There is not an exact practice for each client in detox, because of the unique differences that each person presents when arriving to detox. An individual who is otherwise in good health may go through detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different patient may need to have intensive treatment and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for patients who need to attend an actual drug and alcohol treatment facility once detoxification is finished. Most detox facilities collaborate with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for people in recovery.
