Inpatient detoxification is suggested when an individual is withdrawing from substance use considering withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Tamaqua individuals are closely observed for withdrawal symptoms which may bring about health risks or even death in more serious instances. an individual suffering with alcoholism for example would need to be observed closely and likely administered specific prescription drugs that would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detoxification center will ensure their safety.
There isn't an exact process for each person in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each person presents when arriving to the detoxification facility. Someone who is basically in good health may go through detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different patient may need intensive care and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to treatment for individuals who need to take part in an actual substance abuse recovery program once detoxification is complete. Most detox facilities collaborate with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
