Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Ovalo, TX.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Ovalo individuals are closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could cause health complications or even death in more severe instances. a person with alcoholism for instance will need to be observed closely and possibly given specific medications that will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could cause very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detox center can keep them safe.

There isn't an exact protocol for each individual in detox, because of the unique health differences that each person exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. A person who is basically in good health may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another person may require comprehensive care and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for individuals who need to attend an actual drug and alcohol rehab center once detox is finished. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in an overall rehabilitation plan for recovering addicts.
