Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Ashland, MS.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when someone is withdrawing from substance use considering there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Ashland patients are closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could cause health risks or even death in more severe instances. a person with alcoholism for example will need to be closely monitored and possibly administered certain prescription medications which works to prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may bring about very similar symptoms, and medical professionals in the inpatient detoxification facility will keep them safe.

There is not an exact process for each client in detox, because of the unique health differences that each patient exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. An individual who is basically in good health may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much intervention, while a different patient may require intensive oversight and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Health safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to treatment for clients who need to take part in an actual substance abuse rehabilitation facility once detox is finished. Most detox facilities work with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in an overall rehabilitation plan for recovering addicts.
