Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Sheep Springs, NM.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Sheep Springs individuals are closely checked for withdrawal symptoms that may cause health complications or even death in more severe instances. Someone suffering with alcoholism for instance would need to be watched closely and probably given specific prescription medications which will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that could cause very similar symptoms, and medical professionals in the inpatient detox facility can keep them safe.

There is not an exact process for each client in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each person exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. Someone who is basically physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another patient may need comprehensive supervision and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for clients who need to go to an actual substance abuse recovery facility once detoxification is complete. Most detox facilities collaborate with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, since detoxification is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive rehabilitation plan for recovering addicts.
