Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Sugar Tree, TN.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you can decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Sugar Tree offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery center to work on their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
