Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Sag Harbor, NY.

Inpatient detoxification is vital when someone is withdrawing from substance use because withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Sag Harbor clients can be closely watched for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could cause health complications or even death in more severe cases. Someone with alcoholism for instance may need to be closely monitored and probably given certain prescription drugs which will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and medical professionals in the inpatient detox 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 the detoxification facility. Someone who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much intervention, while another patient may need comprehensive treatment and intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to treatment for clients who should to go to an actual drug and alcohol treatment program once detoxification is complete. Many detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is only the first step in an overall treatment plan for recovering addicts.
