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

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you may make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Rockingham provides medical detox services, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People 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 physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment facility to work on their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
