Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Pilot Rock, OR.

Inpatient detoxification is essential when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Pilot Rock patients are closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may cause health risks or even death in more severe instances. Someone struggling with alcoholism for example would need to be closely monitored and probably given specific prescription drugs that would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detoxification center would minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact protocol for each client in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each individual presents when entering detox. Someone who is otherwise in good health may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another person may need comprehensive treatment and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for patients who need to take part in an actual drug and alcohol recovery program once detoxification is finished. Many detox facilities work with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
