Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Montauk, NY.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you may choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Montauk offers medically managed detox, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual 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 detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation center to work on their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
