Detoxification is the first step of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you might choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Lukeville offers medical detox services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.
For a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment center to handle their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
