Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Coalfield, TN.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Coalfield patients can be closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may bring about health risks or even death in more severe cases. Someone suffering with alcoholism for instance may need to be closely monitored and possibly given specific medications that will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detox center can ensure their safety.

There isn't an exact protocol for each person in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each person exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. A person who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much intervention, while a different patient may need intensive supervision and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for patients who need to attend an actual substance abuse rehabilitation facility once detox is finished. Most detox facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation 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 recovering addicts.
