Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you could decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Lawrenceburg provides medically supervised detox, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.
For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation facility to handle their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
