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

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you could make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Gresham offers medically managed detoxification services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery center to work on their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
