Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Dona Ana, NM.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you could make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Dona Ana provides medically supervised detoxification services, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox 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 a person who has been struggling 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 and/or alcohol recovery program to treat their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
