If someone is getting outpatient detoxification they must go to the facility assisting them through detoxification every day or at least five days per week in most situations. Outpatient detoxification services are either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it perfect for someone who needs to keep a normal work or school routine. Some facilities may also provide ways to receive detox treatment in a choice of regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and relapse prevention help.
An average amount of time people remain in outpatient detox is about seven days. A number of facilities use medication assisted detoxification approaches while others offer medication free detoxification services. There are times when medications are needed to avert life-threatening withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Otherwise, staff at the facility help people handle their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxified and stabilized.
While outpatient detox in Newport is more flexible for apparent reasons, a severe disadvantage is that individuals are at a greater chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, people will then go into a full rehabilitation facility to deal with the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
