Objective: To understand the meaning of detoxification for alcohol-dependent people in a hospital setting. Method: Qualitative

under treatment at the clinic. Data was collected in the second half of 2015 through interviews and analyzed using initial and focused codes.
Results: The identified phenomenon is called “Resuming life after alcohol detoxification in a hospital setting”. Conclusion: Detoxification
in a hospital setting provides an opportunity for alcohol-dependent people to resume their lives and reintegrate themselves into society in a
productive way.
