Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Hill AFB, UT.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you may make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Hill AFB provides medical detox services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form 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 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab program to handle their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
