Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Clockville, NY.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you could choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Clockville provides medical detox, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery program to handle their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
