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

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you could decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Palouse provides medically supervised detoxification services, which is conducted with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug recovery facility to treat their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
