Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Blackey offers medically supervised detox services, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.
For a person who has been struggling 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 and/or alcohol treatment center to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
