Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Semmes, AL.

If a person is receiving outpatient detox they must go to the center assisting them through detoxification every day or at least 5 days a week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification services are either done in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for a person who needs to maintain a regular school or work routine. Certain facilities may also provide options to participate in detox treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detoxification services and relapse prevention help.

An average time clients remain in outpatient detox is about 7 days. Some facilities use medically assisted detoxification approaches while others offer medication free detoxification services. There are times when medications are needed to avert life threatening withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes an issue. Otherwise, medical staff at the center help clients manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Semmes is more adaptable for apparent reasons, a very serious disadvantage is that people are at a higher risk of relapse due to the access they keep to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, individuals will transition into a log-term or short-term recovery program to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
