Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Yeaddiss, KY.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you could choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Yeaddiss offers medical detox services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification 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 detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction 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 facility to work on their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
