Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you can choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Normal provides medically supervised detox, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.
For an individual who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug treatment center to handle their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
