Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Coulee Dam, WA.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you could decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Coulee Dam provides medically supervised detox, which is administered with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what 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 detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery program to treat their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
