Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Kansas City, MO.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Kansas City individuals can be closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could cause health risks or even death in more serious instances. Someone struggling with alcoholism for example will need to be observed closely and likely given specific prescription medications that will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification center can minimize health risks.

There is not an exact practice for each person in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each person presents when entering detox. An individual who is basically physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much intervention, while a different patient may require intensive care and intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for patients who should to attend an actual drug and alcohol recovery center once detoxification is complete. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is merely the first step in an overall treatment plan for recovering addicts.
