Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Dawson, PA.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol considering there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification facility in Dawson patients are closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could cause health risks or even death in more serious instances. Someone with alcoholism for example would need to be closely monitored and likely administered certain prescription drugs that would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can cause very similar symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detoxification facility will keep them safe.

There isn't an exact process for each client in detox, because of the unique health differences that each individual presents when arriving to the detoxification facility. Someone who is basically physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another patient may need to have intensive treatment and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for individuals who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol rehab facility once detoxification is finished. Many detox facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for people in recovery.
