Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Imperial, NE.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you might make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Imperial offers medically supervised detox, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehab program to work on their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
