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

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Muir clients are closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could bring about health risks or even death in more serious cases. Someone struggling with alcoholism for example will need to be watched closely and likely administered specific prescription medications which would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that may cause very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detox facility can minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact protocol for each person in detox, because of the unique differences that each person exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. An individual who is otherwise in good health may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much intervention, while a different patient may require intensive care and intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for patients who need to go to an actual substance abuse rehabilitation center once detox is finished. Most detoxification facilities work with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive rehabilitation plan for people in recovery.
