Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Worthville, PA.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you may choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Worthville provides medically supervised detoxification services, which is performed with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation center to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
