If someone is receiving outpatient detox they must go to the facility helping them with their detox every day or at minimum 5 days a week in most cases. Outpatient detox is either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for someone who must keep a regular work or school schedule. Some facilities may offer ways to participate in detox treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and help prevent a relapse.
An average amount of time people participate in outpatient detox is about seven days. Some programs use medically assisted detox methods while others provide drug free detoxification services. There are times when medications are needed to avert life threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes an issue. Alternatively, medical staff at the center help individuals handle their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are safely detoxed and stabilized.
While outpatient detox in Fort Collins is more adaptable for obvious reasons, a severe drawback is that clients are at a higher risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to drugs. Ideally, clients will then go into a full rehabilitation program to address the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
