Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Mustoe, VA.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you can decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mustoe provides medically managed detoxification services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling 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 treatment facility to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
