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

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs, and you can decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Sproul offers medical detox services, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

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