Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Geneva, NE.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you may decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Geneva provides medical detox, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

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