Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Harrison, NY.

If someone is receiving outpatient detoxification they travel to the center assisting them through detoxification daily or at least 5 days a week in most situations. Outpatient detoxification is either done in the evening or daytime, which makes it ideal for a person who must keep a normal work or school schedule. Certain programs may also provide ways to participate in detox treatment in a choice of regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and relapse prevention help.

A standard time people remain in outpatient detox is about a week. Some facilities use medically assisted detox methods while others offer drug free detox services. There are times when medications are necessary to avert life threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Alternatively, staff at the facility help people manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Harrison is more flexible for obvious reasons, a serious drawback is that people are at a higher chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, individuals 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.
