Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Aztec, NM.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol considering there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Aztec clients can be closely observed for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could cause health risks or even death in more severe cases. Someone with alcoholism for example would need to be closely monitored and possibly administered specific prescription drugs that will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could bring about very similar symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detox facility would minimize health risks.

There is not an exact protocol for each client in detox, because of the unique health differences that each person exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. An individual who is basically in good health may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another person may require comprehensive oversight and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Health safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to treatment for clients who should to take part in an actual substance abuse rehabilitation program once detoxification is complete. Many detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in an overall recovery plan for people in recovery.
