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

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when an individual is withdrawing from substance use because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Lehman patients are closely observed for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may bring about health risks or even death in more severe cases. an individual with alcoholism for instance would need to be closely monitored and likely given certain prescription medications which will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that could bring about very similar symptoms, and medical professionals in the inpatient detox facility can keep them safe.

There is not an exact protocol for each patient in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each individual exhibits when entering the detoxification facility. Someone who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another person may require intensive care and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to treatment for patients who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol recovery center once detox is complete. Most detoxification facilities work with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is only the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for recovering addicts.
