Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Madras, OR.

If someone is getting outpatient detox they must go to the facility assisting them with their detoxification every day or at minimum 5 days per week in most situations. Outpatient detoxification services are either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for someone who must maintain a regular school or work routine. Certain programs also provide ways to get treatment in a choice of regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and prevent relapse.

A standard time people remain in outpatient detox is approximately a week. Some programs use medically assisted detox methods while others offer medication free detoxification treatement. At times when meds are needed to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes an issue. Otherwise, medical staff at the facility help clients handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detoxification in Madras is more flexible for apparent reasons, a severe drawback is that people are at a greater risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to drugs. Ideally, people will transition into a full rehabilitation facility to deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
