Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Fort Calhoun, NE.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you could decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Fort Calhoun provides medically supervised detox, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab program to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
