Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from substance use because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Schenectady clients can be closely observed for withdrawal symptoms which could cause health complications or even death in more severe cases. Someone struggling with alcoholism for instance would need to be closely monitored and probably given certain medications which would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detox facility will keep them safe.
There isn't an exact practice for each client in detox, because of the unique health differences that each patient exhibits when entering detox. Someone who is basically physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different patient may need intensive oversight and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for patients who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol recovery facility once detoxification is finished. Many detox facilities collaborate with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for people in recovery.
