Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Auburndale, WI.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Auburndale provides medically managed detoxification services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery center to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
