Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Kewanee, IL.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you can choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Kewanee provides medically supervised detox services, which is conducted with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has been struggling 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 rehab program to treat their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
