Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Medford, OK.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when someone is withdrawing from substance use considering there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Medford clients can be closely monitored for withdrawal symptoms that could bring about health risks or even death in more severe instances. a person with alcoholism for example would need to be observed closely and possibly administered specific medications that would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that may cause very similar withdrawal effects, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detoxification facility can keep them safe.

There is not an exact protocol for each individual in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each person presents when entering detox. An individual who is basically physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while a different person may need intensive supervision and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to treatment for clients who need to attend an actual drug and alcohol rehab program once detoxification is complete. Many detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for people in recovery.
