Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Fairfield, ND.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you might decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Fairfield offers medically supervised detox services, which is performed with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment center to treat their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
