Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Cushing, IA.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you can choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Cushing offers medically supervised detox services, which is administered with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

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