Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Eagle Rock, MO.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you can choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Eagle Rock offers medical detox services, which is performed with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment center to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
