Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Portia, AR.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you could choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Portia offers medically supervised detox services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type 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 withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation facility to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
