Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Wenona, IL.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you could choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Wenona provides medically supervised detox services, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to treat their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
