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

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you could make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Wamego offers medical detoxification services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment center to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
