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

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you can make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Bartonsville provides medical detox, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehab facility to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
