Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Platte, SD.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification facility in Platte individuals can be closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may cause health complications or even death in more severe cases. an individual suffering with alcoholism for example would need to be closely monitored and likely given certain prescription medications which works to prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that could bring about very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification center can minimize health risks.

There is not an exact protocol for each patient in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each individual presents when arriving to detox. A person who is basically in good health may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another patient may need intensive oversight and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Health safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for clients who need to attend an actual drug and alcohol rehab program once detox is finished. Many detoxification facilities work with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, since detoxification is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for people in recovery.
