Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Brooklyn, WI.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs, and you could decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Brooklyn provides medically supervised detox services, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay 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 someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehab facility to work on their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
