Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Woodville, WV.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Woodville offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medical detox 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 detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug recovery program to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
