Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Arthurdale, WV.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you may decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Arthurdale offers medically managed detoxification services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For an individual 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 rehab center to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
