Inpatient detoxification is suggested when a person is withdrawing from substance use due to the fact that withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Astoria individuals can be closely observed for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could bring about health complications or even death in more serious instances. Someone struggling with alcoholism for instance will need to be closely monitored and possibly administered specific prescription medications that would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that may cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detoxification center would keep them safe.
There is not an exact protocol for each client in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each patient exhibits when arriving to detox. Someone who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much intervention, while a different person may require comprehensive care and intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to treatment for patients who should to attend an actual drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility once detoxification is finished. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation programs to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in an overall recovery plan for recovering addicts.
