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

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Hillview provides medically supervised detoxification services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person 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 detoxification facility to a drug rehabilitation program to handle their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
