Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Wishek, ND.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you may choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Wishek offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay 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 physical and mental health.

For someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment center to work on their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
