Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Raymond, IA.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you could make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Raymond provides medically supervised detox services, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals 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 substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery center to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
