Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Polacca, AZ.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you might choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Polacca provides medical detox services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might need specific 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 undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

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