Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Hartford, IL.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you may decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Hartford offers medically managed detoxification services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form 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 health.

For a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab program to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
