Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Abington, MA.

If someone is getting outpatient detox they must go to the facility assisting them with their detoxification daily or at minimum 5 days per week in most situations. Outpatient detoxification services are either done in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for someone who must maintain a regular school or work schedule. Some facilities may offer ways to receive treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detoxification services and help prevent a relapse.

A standard amount of time people remain in outpatient detoxification is about seven days. Some programs use medically assisted detoxification methods while others provide drug free detoxification services. There are times when meds are needed to avert life-threatening withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Otherwise, medical staff at the facility help people manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detoxification in Abington is more adaptable for obvious reasons, a very serious drawback is that individuals are at a greater risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, clients will then go into a comprehensive treatment facility to deal with the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
