Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Bondsville, MA.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you may make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Bondsville offers medically managed detox, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment program to treat their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
