Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Battlement Mesa, CO.

If an individual is getting outpatient detoxification they travel to the center assisting them with their detoxification every day or at least five days a week in most situations. Outpatient detoxification services are either done in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for a person who must keep a normal work or school schedule. Some programs may offer ways to receive treatment in a choice of normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and relapse prevention help.

An average amount of time individuals remain in outpatient detoxification is about seven days. A number of programs use medication assisted detox methods while others provide drug free detox treatement. There are times when medications are necessary to prevent life-threatening withdrawal problems, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Otherwise, staff at the facility help individuals manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are safely detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detoxification in Battlement Mesa is more flexible for obvious reasons, a severe disadvantage is that people are at a higher risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to drugs. Ideally, individuals will transition into a log-term or short-term recovery program to deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
