Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Auberry, CA.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you can choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Auberry offers medical detoxification services, which is conducted with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery facility to treat their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
