Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - West Shokan, NY.

If a person is receiving outpatient detox they travel to the facility helping them with their detoxification daily or at least 5 days a week in most situations. Outpatient detoxification services are either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for someone who must maintain a normal school or work schedule. Some programs may provide ways to get detox treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and help prevent a relapse.

An average time people remain in outpatient detox is about 7 days. Some facilities use medically assisted detoxification approaches while others provide medication free detoxification services. At times when medications are necessary to prevent deadly withdrawal problems, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Otherwise, medical staff at the facility help clients handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxed and balanced.

While outpatient detoxification in West Shokan is more flexible for apparent reasons, a severe disadvantage is that clients are at a higher risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, individuals will transition into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
