Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - South Deerfield, MA.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in South Deerfield offers medically managed detoxification services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery program to treat their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
