Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Stevensville, MI.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you might choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Stevensville provides medically supervised detox services, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery center to treat their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
