Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Goshen, IN.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you could choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Goshen provides medically managed detoxification services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment program to treat their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
