Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Manchester, TN.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you might choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Manchester provides medically managed detox services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide 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. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment program to treat their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
