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

If a person is getting outpatient detox they travel to the facility helping them with their detoxification every day or at least five days per week in most situations. Outpatient detox is either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for a person who needs to maintain a regular school or work schedule. Certain facilities also provide ways to get detoxification treatment in a choice of normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and try to prevent relapse.

A standard amount of time clients participate in outpatient detox is about a week. Some facilities use medication assisted detox methods while others provide medication free detox treatement. There are times when meds are needed to avert life-threatening withdrawal problems, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes an issue. Otherwise, medical staff at the center help individuals manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are safely detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Windsor is more flexible for apparent reasons, a very severe disadvantage is that individuals are at a higher chance of relapse due to the access they maintain to drugs. Ideally, individuals will then go into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to address the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
