Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - North Bend, PA.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you may make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in North Bend provides medically managed detox, which is performed with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab program to treat their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
