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

While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Northpoint clients are closely observed for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may bring about health complications or even death in more severe instances. an individual struggling with alcoholism for instance may need to be observed closely and likely administered certain prescription drugs which will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification center can ensure their safety.

There is not an exact practice for each patient in detox, because of the unique health differences that each patient exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. A person who is basically physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while a different person may require intensive oversight and intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to treatment for clients who should to attend an actual drug and alcohol rehabilitation center once detox is complete.
