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

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you could make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Venice offers medically managed detoxification services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medically supervised detox 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 detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person 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 detoxification facility to a drug treatment center to work on their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
