Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Glade Hill, VA.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you might choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Glade Hill offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could 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 drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to handle their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
