Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Jennings, FL.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you might make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Jennings offers medically managed detox, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery program to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
