Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Dover, OK.

If a person is getting outpatient detox they must go to the facility assisting them through detox every day or at minimum 5 days a week in most situations. Outpatient detox is either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for someone who must keep a normal work or school routine. Some facilities also provide ways to participate in detox treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and try to prevent relapse.

A standard time people participate in outpatient detox is about seven days. Some programs use medically assisted detoxification approaches while others provide medication free detox treatement. There are times when meds are needed to avert life threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes an issue. Alternatively, staff at the program help people manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxed and balanced.

While outpatient detoxification in Dover is more flexible for apparent reasons, a very serious drawback is that clients are at a greater chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, clients will transition into a comprehensive treatment program to address the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
