Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Smiths Creek, MI.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you could decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Smiths Creek provides medical detoxification services, which is performed with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

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