Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Avalon, WI.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you may make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Avalon provides medically managed detox services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance 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 an immediate and easy 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 actual rehabilitation in itself.
