Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Vineyard Haven, MA.

If a person is receiving outpatient detoxification they must go to the facility helping them with their detox daily or at minimum five days per week in most cases. Outpatient detox services are either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for someone who needs to maintain a normal school or work routine. Some programs may also offer ways to receive detox treatment in a choice of regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and relapse prevention help.

A standard amount of time people participate in outpatient detoxification is about 7 days. A number of programs use medication assisted detoxification approaches while others offer drug free detox services. There are times when meds are necessary to avert life threatening withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Otherwise, staff at the program help clients handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are safely detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Vineyard Haven is more adaptable for obvious reasons, a very severe drawback is that people are at a greater risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, people will then go into a full rehabilitation facility to deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
