Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Fox Island, WA.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Fox Island offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment program to treat their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
