Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Glenn, CA.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you might choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Glenn provides medical detox, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history 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 rehabilitation facility to work on their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
