Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you could make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Chelsea offers medically managed detox, which is conducted with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance 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, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehab program to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
