Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Mashantucket, CT.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mashantucket offers medically supervised detox services, which is conducted with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing 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 an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery facility to handle their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
