Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Wichita Falls, TX.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification facility in Wichita Falls patients are closely checked 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 watched closely and probably administered specific medications that would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can cause very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detoxification facility can keep them safe.

There isn't an exact protocol for each client in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each person presents when arriving to the detoxification facility. An individual who is basically in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much intervention, while another patient may need to have comprehensive treatment and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for individuals who should to go to an actual drug and alcohol rehabilitation program once detox is finished. Most detox facilities work with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is merely the first step in an overall rehabilitation plan for people in recovery.
