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

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you could decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Cambridge Springs offers medically managed detox services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone 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 recovery facility to treat their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
