Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Bethel, MO.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you might make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Bethel provides medically managed detox services, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain 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 someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to work on their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
