Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Ocean Isle Beach, NC.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you can choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Ocean Isle Beach offers medically managed detox services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug recovery center to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
