Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Ashland, NE.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you might decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Ashland offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation program to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
