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

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you could decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Lewellen provides medical detoxification services, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation program to work on their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
