Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you could choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mansfield provides medical detox, which is carried out with the help of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.
For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug recovery facility to treat their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
