Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Hollister, CA.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs, and you can make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Hollister offers medical detox services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug recovery center to treat their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
