Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Baldwin, MD.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you could choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Baldwin offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is performed with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures 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 medications are used to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has been struggling 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 rehab center to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
