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

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you could choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Nephi provides medically managed detox services, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery facility to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
