Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Ruffin, NC.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you might make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Ruffin provides medically supervised detox, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug recovery facility to work on their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
