Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Kenton, TN.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you can choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Kenton offers medically managed detoxification services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing 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 a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation program to treat their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
