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

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Robinson Creek offers medical detoxification services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery program to work on their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
