Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you may make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Barbeau provides medically supervised detox services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.
For someone who has been struggling 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 treatment facility to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
