Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Ann Arbor, MI.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you could make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Ann Arbor offers medically managed detox, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal 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 during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has a history 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 treatment center to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
