Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Bridgeport, WA.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you may decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Bridgeport offers medically supervised detox, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment center to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
