Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Northbridge, MA.

If a person is getting outpatient detox they travel to the facility helping them with their detox every day or at minimum 5 days a week in most situations. Outpatient detoxification is either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it ideal for someone who must keep a normal work or school schedule. Certain facilities also offer ways to participate in detox treatment in a choice of normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and help prevent a relapse.

An average amount of time clients participate in outpatient detox is about 7 days. A number of programs use medication assisted detox methods while others provide medication free detoxification services. There are times when meds are necessary to avert life-threatening withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Alternatively, medical staff at the center help clients handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxed and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Northbridge is more adaptable for obvious reasons, a serious disadvantage is that clients are at a higher risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, clients will transition into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is finished.
