Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Green Harbor, MA.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you could make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Green Harbor offers medical detox services, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab program to work on their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
