Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Wesley, IA.

If a person is getting outpatient detox they travel to the facility helping them with their detoxification daily or at minimum five days a week in most cases. Outpatient detox is either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it perfect for a person who must keep a regular work or school routine. Certain facilities also offer ways to participate in detox treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and help prevent a relapse.

An average amount of time individuals participate in outpatient detox is approximately 7 days. Some facilities use medically assisted detoxification approaches while others provide medication free detoxification services. At times when meds are needed to prevent life threatening withdrawal problems, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Otherwise, medical staff at the program help clients handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detoxification in Wesley is more flexible for obvious reasons, a severe drawback is that people are at a greater chance of relapse due to the access they keep to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, clients will transition into a full rehabilitation program to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
