Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Hanston, KS.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you could choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Hanston offers medically supervised detox services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. 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 a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to treat their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
