Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Kenyon, RI.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you might decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Kenyon provides medical detoxification services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might 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) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment facility to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
