Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Cooleemee, NC.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you can decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Cooleemee offers medical detox services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment program to work on their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
