Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - East Hartland, CT.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you may decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in East Hartland provides medically managed detox, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 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 drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab center to handle their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
