Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Mount Crawford, VA.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you could make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mount Crawford offers medically supervised detox, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone 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 detox facility to a drug recovery facility to treat their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
