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

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you might make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Springs offers medically managed detox services, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug recovery program to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
