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

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you could choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Humptulips offers medical detox, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form 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 withdrawing 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 smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab program to treat their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
