Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - El Toro, CA.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you could decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in El Toro offers medical detox, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients 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 someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug recovery center to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
