Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Beaver, KY.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you might choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Beaver offers medical detoxification services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (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 may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone 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 detoxification facility to a drug treatment facility to treat their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
