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

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Glenville provides medical detox services, which is performed with the help of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery center to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
