Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Patterson, NC.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from substance use considering there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Patterson patients are closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could bring about health risks or even death in more serious cases. Someone struggling with alcoholism for instance will need to be watched closely and probably administered specific prescription drugs that would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can cause very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detox center will keep them safe.

There isn't an exact practice for each person in detox, because of the unique health differences that each individual exhibits when entering detox. A person who is basically in good health may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much intervention, while a different person may require intensive treatment and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to treatment for clients who should to take part in an actual substance abuse treatment facility once detox is finished. Many detoxification facilities work with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is only the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
