Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you may decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Fort Ashby provides medically supervised detox, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through 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 uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox 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 substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.
For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehab program to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
