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

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in La Habra provides medically supervised detoxification services, which is administered with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where 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 withdrawal symptoms have diminished. 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 an individual who has a history 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 treatment center to work on their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
