Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Hagerman, ID.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Hagerman provides medical detoxification services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental 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 detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery facility to treat their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
