Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Bear Creek, PA.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you can make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Bear Creek provides medically supervised detox services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment program to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
