Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Ivins, UT.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you can decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Ivins offers medical detoxification services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but usually 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 could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling 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 center to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
