Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Oakmont, PA.

Inpatient detoxification is essential when an individual is withdrawing from substance use considering withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Oakmont patients can be closely checked for withdrawal symptoms that may cause health risks or even death in more serious instances. a person with alcoholism for example will need to be watched closely and likely given certain prescription drugs which would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could bring about very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detox facility would minimize health risks.

There is not an exact practice for each patient in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each patient presents when entering detox. Someone who is basically physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different patient may require intensive care and intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to treatment for clients who need to attend an actual drug and alcohol recovery facility once detoxification is complete. Many detox facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in an overall rehabilitation plan for people in recovery.
