Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Hernando, MS.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you may choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Hernando provides medically managed detoxification services, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox 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 health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery center to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
