Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Nehawka, NE.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Nehawka offers medically supervised detox services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients 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 detoxing from and their overall health.

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