Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Arroyo Hondo, NM.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you can decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Arroyo Hondo offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment program to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
