Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Ocean Springs, MS.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol considering there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Ocean Springs patients are closely watched for withdrawal symptoms that could cause health risks or even death in more serious instances. a person struggling with alcoholism for instance may need to be watched closely and likely given certain medications which will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could cause very similar withdrawal effects, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detoxification center would minimize health risks.

There is not an exact protocol for each client in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each person exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. A person who is basically in good health may go through detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much intervention, while a different person may need comprehensive treatment and medical 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 clients who need to attend an actual substance abuse rehabilitation program once detoxification is complete. Many detox facilities collaborate with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is merely the first step in an overall rehabilitation plan for people in recovery.
