Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Waukee, IA.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you may make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Waukee provides medical detox services, which is performed with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation program to treat their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
