Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Medon, TN.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you can make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Medon offers medically supervised detox services, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation facility to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
