Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Cambridge, MA.

If someone is receiving outpatient detoxification they must go to the facility helping them through detox every day or at least 5 days per week in most cases. Outpatient detox services are either done in the daytime or evening, which makes it perfect for a person who needs to keep a normal work or school routine. Certain facilities also provide ways to receive detox treatment in a choice of normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and prevent relapse.

A standard time individuals remain in outpatient detox is approximately 7 days. Some facilities use medically assisted detox approaches while others provide medication free detox treatement. At times when meds are necessary to prevent deadly withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Otherwise, staff at the program help individuals handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are safely detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Cambridge is more adaptable for obvious reasons, a severe disadvantage is that clients are at a greater risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to drugs. Ideally, people will then go into a comprehensive treatment facility to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
