Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Ellinwood, KS.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you may make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Ellinwood offers medically managed detoxification services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab center to handle their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
