Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Ward, CO.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you can make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Ward provides medically supervised detox, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling 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 treatment center to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
