Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Ester, AK.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you may make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Ester provides medically managed detoxification services, which is performed with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery program to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
