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

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Gila offers medically managed detox services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing 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 rehabilitation program to treat their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
