Detoxification is the first step of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you might decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Holbrook provides medically managed detox services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.
For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery center to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
