Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Star Lake, WI.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you may choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Star Lake provides medically supervised detox services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehab facility to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
