Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Belmond, IA.

If a person is receiving outpatient detoxification they must go to the facility assisting them with their detoxification every day or at least 5 days per week in most situations. Outpatient detox is either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for a person who must keep a normal work or school schedule. Some facilities also offer options to receive detoxification treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and prevent relapse.

An average time people remain in outpatient detoxification is about a week. Some facilities use medication assisted detoxification methods while others provide medication 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 a problem. Otherwise, staff at the program help clients handle their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detoxification in Belmond is more flexible for obvious reasons, a very severe drawback is that clients are at a higher chance of relapse due to the access they keep to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, individuals will transition into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
