Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Greenfield, MO.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you can make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Greenfield offers medical detox, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation center to work on their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
