Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you could make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Oconomowoc provides medical detoxification services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing 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 experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.
For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehabilitation program to work on their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
