Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Greenfield, OH.

If someone is getting outpatient detox they travel to the facility assisting them with their detox daily or at least 5 days a week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification services are either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it ideal for someone who must keep a regular work or school schedule. Some facilities may also offer options to receive detoxification 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 clients remain in outpatient detoxification is about seven days. A number of facilities use medically assisted detox methods while others provide medication free detoxification treatement. At times when meds are necessary to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Otherwise, medical 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 detoxification in Greenfield is more adaptable for obvious reasons, a serious drawback is that individuals are at a higher chance of relapse due to the access they keep to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, clients will transition into a comprehensive treatment facility to deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
