Hospital Inpatient - Prewitt, New MexicoAny person who is heavily addicted to drugs or alcohol will benefit tremendously by attending a hospital inpatient rehab program. These types of programs are geared towards physical health, mental health and medical stabilization. Recovering persons will have access to medication as well as medical staff around the clock. While not every person attempting recovery requires this level of care, it is beneficial to those who have severe physical addiction problems to drugs or alcohol. Hospital inpatient programs often last several days to several weeks. Once the hospital inpatient part of their recovery is complete they may choose to enter a sober living facility or transfer into an outpatient program.
