Inpatient detoxification is vital when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification facility in Ooltewah clients can be closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could bring about health complications or even death in more severe instances. Someone with alcoholism for example will need to be closely monitored and likely given specific medications which would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detox center would ensure their safety.
There isn't an exact practice for each person in detox, because of the unique health differences that each person presents when arriving to detox. A person who is otherwise in good health may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another person may need to have intensive care and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to treatment for individuals who need to attend an actual drug and alcohol rehab facility once detox is complete. Many detox facilities collaborate with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
