Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you can choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Wurtland offers medically supervised detox services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.
For an individual who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment facility to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
