Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Jacumba, CA.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you could make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Jacumba offers medically managed detox services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab facility to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
