Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Yreka, CA.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you could choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Yreka offers medical detox services, which is conducted with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment program to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
