Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Center Sandwich, NH.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you may make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Center Sandwich offers medical detox services, which is conducted with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal 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 substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehabilitation program to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
