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

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Vernon provides medically supervised detoxification services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of 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 a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
