Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Great Valley, NY.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from substance use because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Great Valley patients are closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may bring about health complications or even death in more severe cases. Someone suffering with alcoholism for example would need to be watched closely and possibly given specific medications that will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar withdrawal effects, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detox facility would minimize health risks.

There is not an exact protocol for each individual in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each patient presents when entering the detoxification facility. Someone who is otherwise in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much intervention, while another patient may need to have comprehensive supervision and intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for clients who should to take part in an actual substance abuse rehab program once detox is complete. Many detoxification facilities collaborate with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is merely the first step in an overall recovery plan for recovering addicts.
