Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Pennsburg, PA.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Pennsburg patients can be closely observed for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may cause health complications or even death in more serious cases. Someone struggling with alcoholism for example may need to be closely monitored and likely administered certain prescription medications which will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification center would keep them safe.

There is not an exact protocol for each individual in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each patient exhibits when arriving to detox. An individual who is otherwise in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different patient may need comprehensive treatment and intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to treatment for individuals who need to attend an actual drug and alcohol rehabilitation program once detoxification is complete. Most detoxification facilities work with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for recovering addicts.
