Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Omega, GA.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you could decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Omega offers medical detox, which is conducted with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery center to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
