Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Willcox, AZ.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Willcox provides medical detox services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction 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 program to treat their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
