Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Canal Winchester, OH.

If someone is receiving outpatient detoxification they travel to the center assisting them with their detox daily or at least five days a week in most situations. Outpatient detox is either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it ideal for someone who must keep a normal work or school schedule. Some programs may also offer options to receive detox treatment in a choice of normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and help prevent a relapse.

A standard amount of time people participate in outpatient detox is about 7 days. A number of programs use medication assisted detox methods while others offer drug free detoxification services. There are times when medications are needed to prevent life threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Otherwise, medical staff at the facility help individuals manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Canal Winchester is more adaptable for obvious reasons, a very severe disadvantage is that individuals are at a greater risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, people will then go into a full rehabilitation program to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
