Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Aston, PA.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from substance use because there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification facility in Aston clients can be closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could bring about health complications or even death in more serious cases. Someone suffering with alcoholism for instance will need to be closely monitored and likely administered certain prescription medications that will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can cause very similar symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detoxification facility will keep them safe.

There isn't an exact protocol for each patient in detox, because of the unique differences that each patient exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. Someone who is basically in good health 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. Health safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to treatment for patients who need to go to an actual substance abuse recovery program once detox is complete. Many detox facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation programs to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for people in recovery.
