Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Crescent, OR.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from substance use due to the fact that withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Crescent patients can be closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may cause health risks or even death in more serious cases. Someone suffering with alcoholism for instance may need to be observed closely and possibly given specific prescription medications that would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification center can minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact protocol for each patient in detox, because of the unique health differences that each person presents when arriving to detox. Someone who is basically in good health may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another patient may need to have intensive care and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for clients who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol treatment program once detoxification is complete. Most detox facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
