Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Sutherlin, VA.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you can choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Sutherlin offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug 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 an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug treatment facility to handle their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
