Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Morning Sun, IA.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you may choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Morning Sun offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab program to treat their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
