Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Mechanic Falls, ME.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification facility in Mechanic Falls clients are closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may cause health complications or even death in more severe instances. Someone with alcoholism for instance would need to be watched closely and likely given specific prescription drugs which will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that may cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification center would keep them safe.

There is not an exact process for each client in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each individual exhibits when entering the detoxification facility. An individual who is basically in good health may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different patient may require intensive supervision and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for individuals who should to attend an actual drug and alcohol treatment program once detox is complete. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation programs to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for people in recovery.
