Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Wappingers Falls, NY.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol considering there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Wappingers Falls clients can be closely watched for withdrawal symptoms that could cause health risks or even death in more serious instances. Someone with alcoholism for instance would need to be watched closely and possibly administered certain prescription drugs which would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may cause very similar symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detoxification facility would keep them safe.

There is not an exact practice for each client in detox, because of the unique health differences that each patient exhibits when arriving to detox. A person who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may go through detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another person may require intensive treatment and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to treatment for clients who need to attend an actual substance abuse treatment facility once detoxification is finished. Many detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
