Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Freetown, IN.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you may choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Freetown provides medical detox, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help 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 could 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 someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery facility to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
