Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Sanford, ME.

Inpatient detoxification is vital when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Sanford patients are closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could bring about health complications or even death in more severe instances. Someone with alcoholism for instance would need to be closely monitored and possibly given specific prescription drugs that will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detoxification center would minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact practice for each individual in detox, because of the unique differences that each patient presents when arriving to the detoxification facility. An individual who is basically in good health may go through detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different person may need comprehensive supervision and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for individuals who should to go to an actual drug and alcohol rehabilitation center once detox is finished. Many detoxification facilities collaborate with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive rehabilitation plan for recovering addicts.
