Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Copalis Crossing, WA.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Copalis Crossing offers medical detox, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
