Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you could decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mount Juliet provides medically managed detoxification services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall 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 rehab program to treat their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
