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

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you might decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Weldon provides medical detox services, which is administered with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery facility to handle their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
