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

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you might make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Bee provides medically managed detox, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person 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 treatment program to work on their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
