Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Norton, KS.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Norton provides medical detoxification services, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery program to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
