Inpatient hospitalization programs in Gueydan are a kind of drug rehabilitation facility which provides treatment in a hospital environment where the treatment process can be overseen by medical staff and treatment professionals. As is generally the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine withdrawal, it is sometimes vital for the person to be in an inpatient hospitalization program during the withdrawal process because some withdrawal symptoms can be life threatening. Inpatient hospitalization programs are also an option for those in Gueydan who wish to undergo medication assisted withdrawal, which is often used in the case of prescription pain reliever and illicit opiate addiction. Most people in Gueydan who receive this treatment route however and don't follow up with further rehabilitation typically have very high rates of relapse. In either case, individuals should follow up detox with an extensive recovery program either in inpatient hospitalization or in some other drug rehabilitation center.
