Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Collins, MS.

If an individual is getting outpatient detox they must go to the facility assisting them with their detoxification daily or at least five days per week in most situations. Outpatient detox services are either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it perfect for a person who needs to keep a normal school or work schedule. Some facilities also offer options to participate in detoxification treatment in a choice of regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and try to prevent relapse.

An average amount of time people participate in outpatient detox is about seven days. Some programs use medication assisted detoxification approaches while others provide medication free detoxification services. There are times when meds are necessary to avert deadly withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes an issue. Otherwise, medical staff at the facility help people manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Collins is more flexible for apparent reasons, a serious drawback is that individuals are at a higher risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to drugs. Ideally, clients will transition into a comprehensive treatment facility to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
