Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Hillsville, PA.

Inpatient detoxification is essential when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Hillsville clients can be closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could cause health complications or even death in more serious cases. Someone with alcoholism for example would need to be closely monitored and possibly given certain prescription medications which will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that may bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detoxification center would minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact protocol for each person in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each patient exhibits when entering detox. An individual 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 person may need to have intensive care and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to treatment for individuals who need to go to an actual substance abuse rehab program once detox is complete. Most detox facilities work with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is only the first step in an overall treatment plan for recovering addicts.
