Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Oldtown, ID.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Oldtown offers medical detoxification services, which is conducted with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation center to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
