Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Holy City, CA.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you might make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Holy City provides medically managed detox services, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
