Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Clarks, NE.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you may decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Clarks provides medical detox services, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery center to treat their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
