Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Jemez Springs, NM.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Jemez Springs offers medical detox, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur 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 prescription medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation center to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
