Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Englishtown, NJ.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Englishtown provides medically supervised detox, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients 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 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 detox facility to a drug rehab facility to work on their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
