Detoxification is the first step of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Owendale offers medical detox services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.
For an individual who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment program to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
