Kramer, ND. - Hospital InpatientAny person who is heavily addicted to drugs or alcohol will benefit greatly by attending a hospital inpatient rehab program. These types of programs are geared towards making the individual�''s withdrawal and detox as smooth as possible. Recovering persons will have access to medication as well as medical staff around the clock. While not every drug addict requires this level of care, it is helpful to those who have severe physical addiction problems to drugs or alcohol. Hospital inpatient programs commonly last several days to even up to a month. Once the inpatient part of their treatment plan is complete they may choose to participate at a sober living facility or transfer into an outpatient program.
