Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Glen Wild, NY.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you can make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Glen Wild provides medical detox, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing 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 an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab program to handle their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
