Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you might make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Hay Springs provides medical detoxification services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 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, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehabilitation center to treat their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
