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

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you can make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Yolyn offers medical detox, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might need certain 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 might decide to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues 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 facility to work on their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
