Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - New Plymouth, ID.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you might decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in New Plymouth offers medically managed detox, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history 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 rehabilitation program to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
