Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Muses Mills, KY.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs, and you can decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Muses Mills provides medical detox services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab program to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
