Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Del City, OK.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you might make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Del City provides medical detox services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may 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 a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery center to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
