Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Fort Mohave, AZ.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Fort Mohave offers medically supervised detox services, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment facility to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
