Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Bruno, WV.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs, and you may make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Bruno provides medical detox services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (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 subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone 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 treatment program to work on their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
