Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Jeffrey, WV.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you can make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Jeffrey offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is conducted with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing 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 an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab center to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
