Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Bethel, NY.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you might choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Bethel offers medically managed detox services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

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