Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Philadelphia, PA.

Inpatient detoxification is essential when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol considering there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Philadelphia individuals can be closely monitored for withdrawal symptoms which could bring about health complications or even death in more severe instances. an individual struggling with alcoholism for instance will need to be closely monitored and probably given certain prescription medications that will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could cause very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detoxification center would keep them safe.

There is not an exact process for each patient in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each patient exhibits when arriving to detox. Someone who is otherwise in good health may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much intervention, while another person may need to have comprehensive oversight and intervention for a couple weeks. Health safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to treatment for individuals who need to go to an actual substance abuse recovery facility once detox is finished. Many detox facilities collaborate with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is merely the first step in an overall treatment plan for recovering addicts.
