Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Glenbrook, NV.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you can decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Glenbrook provides medically managed detoxification services, which is performed with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug 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 smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery program to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
