Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Groton, VT.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you can decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Groton provides medical detox services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

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