While in an inpatient detoxification setting in South Greenfield individuals are closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could cause health complications or even death in more serious cases. a person suffering with alcoholism for example will need to be closely monitored and likely given specific prescription medications that works to prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that could cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and medical professionals in the inpatient detoxification facility will keep them safe.

There is not an exact protocol for each client in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each patient presents when arriving to the detoxification facility. A person who is otherwise in good health may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different patient may need intensive oversight and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for patients who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility once detoxification is finished. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation programs to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for people in recovery.
