Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Barnesville provides medical detoxification services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. 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 someone who has been struggling 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 treatment facility to handle their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
