Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Bear Branch, KY.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you can decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Bear Branch offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab program to handle their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
