Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Pulaski, WI.

If a person is receiving outpatient detox they must go to the facility helping them with their detoxification daily or at least 5 days per week in most situations. Outpatient detox is either done in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for a person who needs to keep a normal school or work schedule. Certain facilities may offer options to receive treatment in a choice of regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and try to prevent relapse.

A standard amount of time individuals remain in outpatient detox is about 7 days. A number of programs use medication assisted detox methods while others provide medication free detox services. There are times when meds are necessary to avert life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Otherwise, staff at the facility help clients manage their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Pulaski is more adaptable for apparent reasons, a serious disadvantage is that clients are at a higher chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, individuals will then go into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to address the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
