Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Little Sioux, IA.

If an individual is getting outpatient detox they must go to the facility assisting them with their detox daily or at least five days per week in most cases. Outpatient detox is either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for someone who must keep a normal work or school schedule. Some programs also offer options to receive detox treatment in a choice of regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detoxification services and try to prevent relapse.

A standard amount of time people remain in outpatient detox is about 7 days. Some facilities use medication assisted detox methods while others offer drug free detox services. At times when meds are needed to avert life threatening withdrawal problems, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Otherwise, staff at the facility help people manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Little Sioux is more flexible for obvious reasons, a severe disadvantage is that individuals are at a greater risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, clients will transition into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
