Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Hesperia, MI.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you might decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Hesperia offers medically supervised detox, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox 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 health.

For someone 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 rehabilitation program to handle their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
