Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Pittsford, NY.

If a person is receiving outpatient detox they travel to the center helping them with their detoxification daily or at minimum 5 days per week in most cases. Outpatient detox services are either done in the evening or daytime, which makes it ideal for a person who needs to maintain a regular school or work schedule. Some programs also offer ways to get treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and try to prevent relapse.

A standard time people remain in outpatient detoxification is approximately 7 days. A number of programs use medically assisted detoxification approaches while others offer medication free detox services. At times when medications are needed to avert life-threatening withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Otherwise, staff at the facility help people handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Pittsford is more flexible for obvious reasons, a very serious drawback is that clients are at a higher risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, clients will then go into a full rehabilitation facility to address the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is finished.
