Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Eagle River, WI.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you may make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Eagle River offers medically supervised detox, which is conducted with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

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