Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you may make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Cooper Landing offers medically supervised detox, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification 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 detoxing from and their overall health.
For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment center to work on their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
