Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Spring Valley, OH.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Spring Valley provides medical detoxification services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person 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 rehab program to work on their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
