Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you may choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in White Sulphur Springs offers medical detox, which is performed with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox 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 detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.
For a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation facility to handle their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
