Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Donaldson, IN.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs, and you can choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Donaldson provides medical detox services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medical detoxification 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. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person 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 and/or alcohol rehabilitation facility to treat their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
