Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Helix, OR.

If an individual is receiving outpatient detoxification they must go to the center helping them through detox daily or at minimum five days a week in most situations. Outpatient detox is either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it ideal for a person who needs to maintain a normal work or school routine. Some programs also offer ways to participate in detoxification treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and relapse prevention help.

An average amount of time people remain in outpatient detox is about a week. Some facilities use medication assisted detoxification approaches while others provide medication free detox treatement. There are times when medications are necessary to avert deadly withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Alternatively, medical staff at the program help clients handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Helix is more flexible for obvious reasons, a very serious disadvantage is that people are at a greater chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to drugs. Ideally, clients will transition into a full rehabilitation facility to deal with the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
