Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Kingston offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is conducted with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.
For an individual who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment center to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
