Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Geary, OK.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when a person is withdrawing from substance use considering there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Geary clients are closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could bring about health complications or even death in more serious instances. Someone with alcoholism for instance may need to be observed closely and possibly given certain medications which will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can cause very similar withdrawal effects, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detox facility can minimize health risks.

There is not an exact practice for each person in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each individual exhibits when entering detox. Someone who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different person may require intensive oversight and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for individuals who need to attend an actual substance abuse rehab facility once detox is complete. Most detox facilities work 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 people in recovery.
