Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Herrick, SD.

Inpatient detoxification is essential when an individual is withdrawing from substance use because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Herrick patients are closely monitored for withdrawal symptoms that could cause health risks or even death in more serious cases. an individual struggling with alcoholism for instance may need to be watched closely and probably given certain prescription medications that works to prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detoxification facility can ensure their safety.

There isn't an exact protocol for each patient in detox, because of the unique health differences that each patient exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. An individual who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different patient may need to have comprehensive oversight and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to treatment for clients who should to attend an actual substance abuse treatment center once detox is finished. Many detox facilities work with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in an overall treatment plan for recovering addicts.
