Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Naples, NC.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you may choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Naples offers medically managed detoxification services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction 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 center to work on their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
