Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Fort Bridger, WY.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you can decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Fort Bridger offers medically managed detoxification services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease 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 symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug 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 recovery program to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
