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

Inpatient detoxification is vital when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Shawmut individuals can be closely checked for withdrawal symptoms that could cause health risks or even death in more serious cases. a person suffering with alcoholism for example will need to be closely monitored and probably administered specific prescription medications which works to prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detox facility will keep them safe.

There is not an exact protocol for each client in detox, because of the unique health differences that each individual exhibits when entering the detoxification facility. An individual who is otherwise in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much intervention, while another patient may require intensive supervision and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for patients who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol rehab facility once detoxification is complete. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehabilitation programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is only the first step in an overall recovery plan for people in recovery.
