Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Valley Head, AL.

If an individual is receiving outpatient detox they must go to the center assisting them through detox daily or at minimum 5 days per week in most cases. Outpatient detox is either done in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for a person who must maintain a normal school or work schedule. Certain programs may provide ways to get detoxification treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and help prevent a relapse.

A standard amount of time people remain in outpatient detoxification is about a week. A number of facilities use medically assisted detoxification methods while others provide medication free detoxification treatement. There are times when meds are necessary to avert life threatening withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Otherwise, medical staff at the center help clients manage their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detoxification in Valley Head is more adaptable for apparent reasons, a serious disadvantage is that people are at a higher risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to drugs. Ideally, clients will transition into a full rehabilitation facility to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
