Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Rockland, WI.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you could choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Rockland offers medically supervised detox, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease 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 diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery facility to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
