Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Bradley, IL.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you might make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Bradley offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment facility to handle their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
