Inpatient detoxification is suggested when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in St. Charles patients are closely observed for withdrawal symptoms which may cause health complications or even death in more serious instances. an individual suffering with alcoholism for example may need to be observed closely and possibly administered certain prescription drugs which works to prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detoxification center would keep them safe.
There is not an exact protocol for each client in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each patient exhibits when entering detox. An individual who is basically physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much intervention, while a different person may need to have comprehensive care and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for patients who need to attend an actual substance abuse recovery facility once detoxification is finished. Many detox facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
