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

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you can make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Turtle Lake offers medically managed detoxification services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
