Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you might make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Stella offers medical detox services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.
For an individual who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab center to work on their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
