Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Dodge, WI.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you might decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Dodge offers medical detox services, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment center to treat their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
