Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Otter Rock, OR.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Otter Rock clients are closely monitored for withdrawal symptoms that could cause health complications or even death in more severe instances. Someone with alcoholism for instance would need to be watched closely and probably given certain prescription medications that will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detox center would ensure their safety.

There is not an exact practice for each person in detox, because of the unique differences that each patient presents when entering detox. An individual who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another person may need to have comprehensive treatment and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to treatment for patients who should to attend an actual drug and alcohol recovery center once detoxification is finished. Many detoxification facilities work with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in an overall recovery plan for people in recovery.
