Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Fairchild Air Force Base, WA.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you could decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Fairchild Air Force Base offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
