Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Petersburg, NY.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Petersburg patients can be closely monitored for withdrawal symptoms which could cause health risks or even death in more serious cases. a person with alcoholism for instance would need to be watched closely and possibly administered specific medications that would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may cause very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detoxification facility can keep them safe.

There isn't an exact process for each client in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each person presents when arriving to detox. Someone who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may go through detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much intervention, while another patient may need intensive oversight and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for patients who should to take part in an actual substance abuse treatment program once detoxification is finished. Many detox 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 people in recovery.
