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

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs, and you might make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Clark provides medical detox, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may 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 a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery center to treat their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
