Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Broughton, IL.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you can make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Broughton provides medically supervised detox services, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People 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 substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history 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 and/or alcohol treatment program to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
