Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Orange Park, FL.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you might choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Orange Park offers medically supervised detox, which is carried out with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may 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 a history 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 work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
