Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Grace, MS.

If someone is getting outpatient detox they travel to the center helping them with their detox daily or at minimum five days a week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification is either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for someone who needs to keep a regular school or work schedule. Some programs may also provide ways to participate in detoxification treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and prevent relapse.

A standard amount of time individuals remain in outpatient detox is approximately seven days. Some facilities use medically assisted detoxification methods while others offer medication free detox services. At times when medications are needed to prevent life threatening withdrawal problems, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Otherwise, medical staff at the facility help clients handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxed and balanced.

While outpatient detoxification in Grace is more adaptable for obvious reasons, a severe disadvantage is that people are at a greater chance of relapse due to the access they keep to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, individuals will transition into a comprehensive treatment facility to address the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
