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

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when someone is withdrawing from substance use due to the fact that there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Stratford individuals are closely observed for withdrawal symptoms that could cause health risks or even death in more serious cases. an individual suffering with alcoholism for example would need to be watched closely and likely given certain prescription medications which would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that could cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and medical professionals in the inpatient detox center would minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact process for each individual in detox, because of the unique health differences that each patient presents when arriving to the detoxification facility. Someone who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much intervention, while a different patient may need to have intensive supervision 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 clients who need to take part in an actual substance abuse rehab program once detox is complete. Most detox facilities collaborate with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for people in recovery.
