Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Kelford, NC.

Inpatient detoxification is essential when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Kelford individuals are closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may bring about health risks or even death in more severe cases. Someone suffering with alcoholism for example would need to be closely monitored and probably given certain prescription drugs which will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detoxification center would ensure their safety.

There isn't an exact protocol for each patient in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each patient presents when arriving to detox. A person who is basically in good health may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another person may need to have comprehensive oversight and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for patients who should to go to an actual drug and alcohol rehabilitation center once detoxification is complete. Many detoxification facilities work with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for recovering addicts.
