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

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you may choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Inglewood provides medically supervised detox, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehab center to work on their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
