Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - North Falmouth, MA.

If someone is receiving outpatient detox they travel to the facility assisting them through detoxification daily or at least five days per week in most cases. Outpatient detox services are either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for someone who must maintain a normal school or work routine. Certain facilities may also provide options to receive treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and prevent relapse.

A standard amount of time people participate in outpatient detox is about a week. Some programs use medically assisted detoxification methods while others offer medication free detoxification treatement. There are times when medications are needed to prevent life threatening withdrawal problems, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Alternatively, medical staff at the facility help people manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in North Falmouth is more flexible for apparent reasons, a serious disadvantage is that individuals are at a greater chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, clients will transition into a comprehensive treatment facility to address the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
