Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - College Corner, OH.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you could choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in College Corner offers medical detox services, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone 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 discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could 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 substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehab facility to work on their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
