Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Aspers, PA.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when someone is withdrawing from substance use considering withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Aspers patients are closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may cause health complications or even death in more serious cases. an individual with alcoholism for example will need to be observed closely and possibly administered specific medications which will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detoxification facility will keep them safe.

There isn't an exact protocol for each person in detox, because of the unique differences that each individual exhibits when entering the detoxification facility. A person who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different patient may require comprehensive care and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for patients who need to take part in an actual substance abuse recovery program once detoxification is complete. Most detoxification facilities work with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in an overall treatment plan for recovering addicts.
