Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Laguna Woods, CA.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you can make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Laguna Woods offers medically supervised detox, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation center to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
