Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Bristol, RI.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when an individual is withdrawing from substance use because there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Bristol clients are closely monitored for withdrawal symptoms which may cause health complications or even death in more severe instances. Someone struggling with alcoholism for example will need to be observed closely and probably given certain prescription drugs that would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that may cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detoxification facility will ensure their safety.

There isn't an exact protocol for each client 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 4 or 5 days and be released without much intervention, while another person may require comprehensive 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 patients who need to attend an actual drug and alcohol recovery program once detox is finished. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for recovering addicts.
