Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Underwood, IN.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you can make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Underwood offers medical detoxification services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation facility to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
