Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Bainbridge, PA.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you may make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Bainbridge provides medically managed detoxification services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what 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, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment program to treat their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
