Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - East Leroy, MI.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you might choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in East Leroy offers medically supervised detox services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription 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 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery facility to handle their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
