Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Hecla, SD.

Inpatient detoxification is essential when someone is withdrawing from substance use considering withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Hecla patients are closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could bring about health risks or even death in more serious cases. Someone with alcoholism for instance will need to be observed closely and possibly administered certain prescription drugs that would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can bring about very similar symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detoxification center will keep them safe.

There isn't an exact protocol for each person in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each individual presents when entering detox. Someone who is basically in good health may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much intervention, while another person may need to have comprehensive oversight and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to treatment for individuals who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol rehabilitation program once detoxification is finished. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for recovering addicts.
