Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Metaline Falls, WA.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you can choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Metaline Falls offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to handle their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
