Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Bena, VA.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you may make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Bena offers medical detox, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehab center to treat their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
