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

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when an individual is withdrawing from substance use because there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Parkhill clients are closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could bring about health risks or even death in more serious instances. Someone suffering with alcoholism for instance would need to be closely monitored and likely given certain prescription drugs that will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can cause very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detox center would minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact protocol for each individual in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each individual exhibits when entering detox. Someone who is basically in good health may go through detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much intervention, while a different person may need comprehensive treatment and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for patients who need to go to an actual substance abuse rehab program once detoxification is finished. Many detox facilities work with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in an overall rehabilitation plan for people in recovery.
