Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Mapleton, IA.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mapleton provides medically managed detoxification services, which is performed with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab center to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
