Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Mockingbird Valley, KY.

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

A standard time people participate in outpatient detox is about a week. Some facilities use medication assisted detoxification approaches while others offer medication free detoxification services. At times when medications are necessary to avert life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Otherwise, staff at the center help clients handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Mockingbird Valley is more adaptable for apparent 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, people will transition into a full rehabilitation program to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
