Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Cottonwood Falls, KS.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you may make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Cottonwood Falls provides medical detox services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation facility to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
