Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from substance use because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in West Leisenring patients can be closely watched for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may bring about health risks or even death in more serious instances. Someone suffering with alcoholism for instance may need to be closely monitored and possibly administered certain prescription medications that would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification center would minimize health risks.
There is not an exact protocol for each patient in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each person presents when entering the detoxification facility. Someone who is basically physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another patient may need intensive treatment and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for clients who should to attend an actual substance abuse treatment program once detox is complete. Many detox facilities work with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for recovering addicts.
