Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Coal Creek, CO.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you can choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Coal Creek offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation program to treat their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
