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

If an individual is receiving outpatient detoxification they travel to the facility assisting them through detox every day or at least five days a week in most situations. Outpatient detoxification services are either done in the daytime or evening, which makes it perfect for someone who must maintain a regular school or work schedule. Certain programs may also offer ways to participate in detox treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and relapse prevention help.

An average amount of time people participate in outpatient detox is approximately seven days. Some programs use medically assisted detox approaches while others provide medication free detoxification treatement. There are times when meds are needed to avert life threatening withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Alternatively, staff at the program help people handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Roosevelt is more flexible for obvious reasons, a serious drawback is that individuals are at a greater risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, individuals will then go into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
