Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Raynham, MA.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you could choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Raynham offers medically managed detoxification services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall 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 detoxification facility to a drug treatment program to treat their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
