Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Dimock, PA.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you might choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Dimock provides medically managed detox services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment center to work on their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
