Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Auburn, PA.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Auburn provides medically supervised detox, which is conducted with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
