Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Sunrise, FL.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you could make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Sunrise provides medically managed detox services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history 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 center to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
