Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Dousman, WI.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you may choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Dousman provides medically supervised detox services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery facility to treat their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
