Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Lake Pleasant, MA.

If a person is receiving outpatient detox they travel to the facility helping them through detox daily or at least five days a week in most situations. Outpatient detox services are either done in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for someone who needs to maintain a normal work or school schedule. Some facilities also offer options to get detoxification treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detoxification services and prevent relapse.

An average time clients remain in outpatient detox is about a week. A number of facilities use medication assisted detox approaches while others provide drug free detox treatement. There are times when medications are necessary to avert life threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Alternatively, staff at the program help people handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxed and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Lake Pleasant is more flexible for obvious reasons, a very severe drawback is that people are at a higher chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to drugs. Ideally, individuals will transition into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to address the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
