Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - La Conner, WA.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you could decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in La Conner offers medical detox, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification 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 type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug treatment center to handle their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
