Detoxification is the first stage of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Boise offers medically managed detox services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.
For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment facility to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
