Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Aberdeen, MD.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs, and you could choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Aberdeen offers medically managed detox services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing 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 easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation program to treat their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
