Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Ridgway, CO.

If a person is receiving outpatient detox they travel to the facility helping them with their detox every day or at least 5 days per week in most situations. Outpatient detox is either done in the daytime or evening, which makes it perfect for someone who needs to maintain a regular school or work routine. Some facilities may provide options to participate in treatment in a choice of normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detox services and relapse prevention help.

An average amount of time clients participate in outpatient detox is about a week. Some programs use medically assisted detox methods while others offer drug free detox services. There are times when meds are needed to avert life-threatening withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Otherwise, medical staff at the facility help people handle their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are safely detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Ridgway is more flexible for apparent reasons, a very serious drawback is that people are at a higher risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to drugs. Ideally, clients will transition into a log-term or short-term recovery program to address the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is finished.
