Hospital Inpatient - Tilden, Illinois

Any person who is seriously addicted to drugs or alcohol will benefit greatly by attending a hospital inpatient program. These types of programs are geared 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 beneficial to those who have serious physical addiction problems to drugs or alcohol. Hospital inpatient programs commonly last several days to several weeks. Once the inpatient portion of their treatment plan is complete they may choose to enter a sober living setting or transfer into an outpatient program.
