Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Winfield, IA.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you might choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Winfield provides medically supervised detox, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug treatment center to treat their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
