Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Pine Valley, CA.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you may decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Pine Valley offers medically supervised detox services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
