Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Mount Carmel, IL.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you can make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mount Carmel offers medically supervised detox services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days 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, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery program to treat their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
