Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - White Plains, MD.

If someone is receiving outpatient detoxification they must go to the center assisting them with their detox daily or at minimum 5 days a week in most situations. Outpatient detoxification is either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for someone who must maintain a normal work or school routine. Some programs may also provide options to receive treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detox services and try to prevent relapse.

An average time people remain in outpatient detoxification is about a week. Some programs use medically assisted detoxification approaches while others provide drug free detoxification services. There are times when meds are needed to avert life threatening withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Alternatively, medical staff at the center help people handle their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxed and balanced.

While outpatient detox in White Plains is more flexible for obvious reasons, a very severe disadvantage is that people are at a higher chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to drugs. Ideally, people 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.
