Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - New Richmond, IN.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you may make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in New Richmond provides medically supervised detox, which is performed with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug recovery center to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
