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

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you may decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Park Ridge provides medical detoxification services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual 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 utilized to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. 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 someone 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 detox facility to a drug rehab program to work on their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
