Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - South Walpole, MA.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you might choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in South Walpole provides medically supervised detox, which is performed with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay 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 withdrawing from and their overall health.

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