Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Gardiner, ME.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs, and you could choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Gardiner provides medical detoxification services, which is performed with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehabilitation program to treat their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
