Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Independence, WI.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you can make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Independence offers medical detox services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery center to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
