Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Scottdale, PA.

Inpatient detoxification is essential when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Scottdale patients are closely observed for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could cause health complications or even death in more serious cases. Someone suffering with alcoholism for example will need to be closely monitored and probably given certain medications which would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can cause very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detox center can keep them safe.

There is not an exact process for each person in detox, because of the unique differences that each person exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. A person who is basically physically and mentally healthy may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while a different patient may need to have comprehensive treatment and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for patients who need to attend an actual drug and alcohol recovery program once detox is finished. Most detox facilities work with drug rehabilitation facilities 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.
