Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Blue Springs, MS.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you may choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Blue Springs provides medically managed detox, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help 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 symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation facility to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
