Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Paris, KY.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you might choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Paris provides medically supervised detox services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation program to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
