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

Inpatient detoxification is recommended 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 Springfield patients are closely checked for withdrawal symptoms which could cause health risks or even death in more serious instances. Someone struggling with alcoholism for instance would need to be watched closely and possibly administered specific prescription medications that would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that could cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detox center would keep them safe.

There isn't an exact practice for each client in detox, because of the unique health differences that each patient presents when entering the detoxification facility. An individual who is basically in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much intervention, while another person may need to have comprehensive care and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for individuals who should to take part in an actual drug and alcohol rehabilitation center once detoxification is finished. Many detoxification facilities work with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for people in recovery.
