Hospital inpatient drug rehab is a kind of rehabilitation which is carried out in a medical facility and is overseen by medical doctors and other medical staff. Hospital inpatient rehabilitation is occasionally necessary if there is any chance of life threatening symptoms of withdrawal, which is often true with alcohol and with a class of medical drug called benzodiazepines which should be overseen extremely carefully by medical professionals in case of any complications. Hospital inpatient rehab may be delivered to people in Burlingame, California who want to take part in medication assisted withdrawal, which is sometimes the case with treatment clients in Burlingame that are opiate dependent and wish to use this form of detoxification approach to avoid the serious symptoms connected with heroin or other opiate withdrawal. This kind of opiate withdrawal is not considered rehab by itself however, and treatment clients will need additional counseling and therapy to completely recover from opiate addiction.
