Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Hartford, WI.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you may choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Hartford offers medically managed detox services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment program to treat their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
