Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Hinton, WV.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you could decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Hinton offers medical detox services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification 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 type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation center to treat their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
