Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Hillsboro, KY.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you can choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Hillsboro provides medically supervised detox services, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medically supervised 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 detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab facility to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
