Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Havelock, NC.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you could make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Havelock offers medically managed detox services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery program to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
