Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Mahopac Falls, NY.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you may choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mahopac Falls provides medical detox services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment facility to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
