Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Hawk Cove, TX.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you can make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Hawk Cove provides medically managed detox services, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could 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 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 and/or alcohol treatment program to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
