Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Kinsale, VA.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you might choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Kinsale provides medically managed detox services, which is conducted with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment center to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
