Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Rices Landing, PA.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you may decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Rices Landing provides medical detox, which is conducted with the help of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab center to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
