Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Sanbornville, NH.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you may decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Sanbornville provides medically supervised detox, which is performed with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment center to handle their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
