Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Bastian, VA.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs, and you might choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Bastian provides medical detox services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehab program to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
