Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Corning, CA.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you might decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Corning offers medical detoxification services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab program to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
