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 facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Newark provides medically supervised detox, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.
For an individual who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug recovery facility to handle their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
