Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you might make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Havelock provides medically managed detox, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.
For an individual 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 detox facility to a drug treatment facility to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
