Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - North Fork, ID.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you could make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in North Fork offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is administered with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone 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 detox facility to a drug rehab center to treat their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
