Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Chase, LA.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Chase provides medically managed detox, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what 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 easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment facility to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
