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

If an individual is getting outpatient detox they travel to the center helping them with their detox every day or at least five days a week in most cases. Outpatient detox services are either done in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for a person who must maintain a regular school or work routine. Certain facilities may also provide ways to participate in detox treatment in a choice of regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detox services and prevent relapse.

An average time clients remain in outpatient detoxification is about seven days. Some programs use medication assisted detox approaches while others provide medication free detox treatement. There are times when meds are needed to avert life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Alternatively, staff at the facility help clients handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxified and balanced.

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