Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in White Mountain Lake offers medical detox, which is conducted with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.
For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation center to handle their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
