Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Cle Elum, WA.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Cle Elum provides medically managed detox services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what 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, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation center to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
