Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Honeydew, CA.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you might make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Honeydew provides medically supervised detox, which is administered with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may 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 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 detox facility to a drug recovery facility to treat their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
