Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Jackson, OH.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you could make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Jackson provides medically supervised detoxification services, which is performed with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab center to treat their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
