Hospital Inpatient - Whittington

Any person who is seriously addicted to drugs or alcohol will benefit tremendously by receiving treatment from a hospital inpatient program. These types of programs are focused towards making the individual�''s withdrawal and detox as smooth as possible. Recovering persons will have access to medication as well as medical staff around the clock. While not every drug addict needs this level of care, it is useful to those who have serious physical addiction problems to drugs or alcohol. Hospital inpatient programs often last several days to even up to a month. Once the hospital inpatient portion of their recovery is complete they may choose to participate at a sober living facility or transfer into an outpatient program.
