Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Questa, NM.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you may decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Questa offers medical detox, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery facility to work on their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
