Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Mill Spring, NC.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you may choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mill Spring provides medical detox services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual 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 recovery facility to work on their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
