Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Mount Vernon, MO.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol considering there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification facility in Mount Vernon clients are closely observed for withdrawal symptoms that could cause health risks or even death in more severe cases. an individual suffering with alcoholism for instance may need to be observed closely and possibly administered specific medications which would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detox facility will minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact practice for each individual in detox, because of the unique health differences that each patient presents when entering the detoxification facility. A person who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much intervention, while a different patient may need to have intensive supervision and intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to treatment for clients who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol treatment facility once detoxification is complete. Most detox facilities work with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is only the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
