Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Artesia, MS.

If an individual is receiving outpatient detoxification they must go to the facility helping them through detox daily or at minimum five days a week in most situations. Outpatient detox services are either done in the daytime or evening, which makes it perfect for someone who needs to maintain a regular work or school routine. Some programs may also provide ways to participate in detoxification treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and try to prevent relapse.

A standard amount of time clients participate in outpatient detoxification is approximately seven days. Some programs use medically assisted detoxification approaches while others provide drug free detoxification treatement. There are times when meds are necessary to prevent life threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Otherwise, staff at the program help people handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Artesia is more adaptable for obvious reasons, a serious drawback is that people are at a greater chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to drugs. Ideally, clients will then go into a log-term or short-term recovery program to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
