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

Inpatient detoxification is essential when someone is withdrawing from substance use because withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Pollock patients can be closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may bring about health risks or even death in more serious cases. Someone with alcoholism for instance would need to be closely monitored and possibly administered certain prescription drugs which works to prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can bring about very similar symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detox center would minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact protocol for each person in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each person presents when arriving to the detoxification facility. An individual who is otherwise in good health may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another patient may need to have comprehensive supervision and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for clients who should to take part in an actual substance abuse recovery facility once detoxification is finished. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehabilitation programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for people in recovery.
