Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Winn, ME.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol considering withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Winn clients are closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may cause health risks or even death in more serious cases. a person with alcoholism for example may need to be closely monitored and probably given specific prescription drugs which would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detoxification center would keep them safe.

There is not an exact practice for each person in detox, because of the unique differences that each individual exhibits when entering detox. Someone who is otherwise in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while a different person may need to have intensive treatment and medical intervention for a couple weeks. 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 rehabilitation center once detoxification is complete. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, since detoxification is merely the first step in an overall recovery plan for people in recovery.
