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

If a person is receiving outpatient detox they must go to the center helping them with their detox every day or at least 5 days per week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification services are either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it ideal for someone who needs to maintain a regular school or work schedule. Some facilities also offer options 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 people participate in outpatient detoxification is about seven days. Some facilities use medically assisted detoxification approaches while others provide medication free detoxification services. There are times when meds are needed to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Alternatively, medical staff at the facility help people manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Ionia is more flexible for obvious reasons, a serious disadvantage is that people are at a higher risk of relapse due to the access they keep to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, people will transition into a full rehabilitation facility to deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
