Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Deer Park, NY.

If someone is receiving outpatient detoxification they must go to the facility assisting them through detoxification every day or at minimum 5 days per week in most situations. Outpatient detox services are either done in the evening or daytime, which makes it ideal for a person who must maintain a normal work or school routine. Some facilities may also offer ways to receive detox treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and prevent relapse.

An average time clients remain in outpatient detox is approximately a week. A number of programs use medically assisted detox methods while others offer medication free detox treatement. There are times when meds are necessary to avert life threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes an issue. Otherwise, staff at the facility help individuals handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are safely detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detoxification in Deer Park is more flexible for obvious reasons, a very serious disadvantage is that clients are at a higher chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, individuals will then go into a log-term or short-term recovery program to deal with the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
