Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you could make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Piedmont offers medical detox services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually 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 type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.
For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation program to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
