Detoxification is the first part of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in La Vista provides medically managed detox services, which is conducted with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox 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 a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment program to treat their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
