Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you could make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Arcadia provides medical detox, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.
For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation center to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
