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

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you can decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Egg Harbor offers medically managed detox services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with 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 miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab center to work on their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
