Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Hartford, TN.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Hartford individuals are closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could bring about health risks or even death in more severe instances. Someone with alcoholism for example will need to be observed closely and possibly administered specific prescription medications which will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detox facility would ensure their safety.

There isn't an exact process for each patient in detox, because of the unique health differences that each patient exhibits when entering detox. A person who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another person may need to have comprehensive oversight and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for individuals who need to go to an actual substance abuse recovery facility once detoxification is finished. Many detox facilities collaborate with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is only the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for people in recovery.
