Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Winder, GA.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you could decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Winder provides medical detoxification services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug 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, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery program to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
