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

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you may choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Southampton offers medically managed detox services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental 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 detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
