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

Inpatient detoxification is essential when a person is withdrawing from substance use considering withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Warren patients can be closely watched for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may cause health complications or even death in more severe cases. Someone with alcoholism for example would need to be watched closely and probably given certain prescription drugs that will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detox center will minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact process for each individual in detox, because of the unique differences that each patient presents when entering the detoxification facility. Someone who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may go through detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another patient may require comprehensive treatment and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Health safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to treatment for patients who need to attend an actual substance abuse rehabilitation program once detox is complete. Most detox facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive rehabilitation plan for people in recovery.
