Hospital inpatient drug and alcohol treatment is a form of rehab that is undergone in a medical location and is overseen by health professionals and other healthcare professionals. Hospital inpatient treatment is at times required if there is any chance of life threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is often the case with alcohol as well as a category of medical drug called benzodiazepines which in any case should be overseen extremely cautiously by medical professionals in case of any problems. Hospital inpatient rehabilitation may be an option for treatment clients in Ontario, New York who choose to take part in medication assisted withdrawal, which is often the case with treatment clients in Ontario, New York whom are addicted to opiates and wish to use this kind of detoxification method to avoid the serious symptoms connected with heroin or other opiate withdrawal. This type of opiate detox is not in any way a form of rehab by itself however, and treatment clients will need much more time spent in rehab to fully overcome opiate addiction.
