Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Winnemucca, NV.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you could choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Winnemucca offers medical detox services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation program to work on their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
