Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Colmar, PA.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Colmar offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues 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 handle their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
