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

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Verona offers medical detox, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment program to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
