Hospital Inpatient - Fairview Heights, Illinois

An individual who is heavily addicted to drugs or alcohol will benefit tremendously by attending a hospital inpatient rehab program. These types of programs are focused towards physical health, mental health and medical stabilization. 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 useful 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 hospital inpatient portion of their recovery is complete they may choose to enter a sober living program or transfer into an outpatient program.
