Inpatient detoxification is recommended when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Michigamme individuals are closely monitored for withdrawal symptoms that may bring about health complications or even death in more severe instances. Someone with alcoholism for instance may need to be closely monitored and likely administered certain prescription medications that will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification center can minimize health risks.
There is not an exact process for each client in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each individual presents when arriving to detox. Someone who is basically in good health may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much intervention, while another patient may require comprehensive treatment and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for individuals who need to attend an actual substance abuse rehab program once detoxification is complete. Most detox facilities work with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive rehabilitation plan for people in recovery.
