Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Hondo, NM.

Inpatient detoxification is essential when an individual is withdrawing from substance use due to the fact that withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Hondo clients can be closely watched for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could bring about health complications or even death in more serious cases. Someone with alcoholism for example would need to be observed closely and likely administered specific medications which will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may bring about very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detoxification facility can keep them safe.

There isn't an exact protocol for each individual in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each patient exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. Someone who is otherwise in good health may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much medical intervention, while a different person may need to have intensive oversight and intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for clients who need to go to an actual substance abuse rehab center once detox is finished. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in an overall recovery plan for recovering addicts.
