Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Sparta, KY.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you could decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Sparta offers medically managed detox services, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab program to treat their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
