Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Wilton, ME.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when a person is withdrawing from substance use considering withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Wilton patients are closely watched for withdrawal symptoms that could cause health complications or even death in more severe cases. a person suffering with alcoholism for example will need to be observed closely and probably administered specific prescription drugs that will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may cause very similar withdrawal effects, and medical professionals in an inpatient detoxification facility can keep them safe.

There isn't an exact practice for each individual in detox, because of the unique health differences that each individual presents when arriving to the detoxification facility. An individual who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another person may require intensive care and intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for individuals who need to go to an actual substance abuse treatment program once detoxification is complete. Many detox facilities work with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is only the first step in an overall recovery plan for recovering addicts.
