Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Helm, CA.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you could make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Helm provides medically supervised detox, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease 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 symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 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 an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab facility to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
