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

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you could choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Needmore provides medically managed detox, which is conducted with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation program to treat their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
