Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Olema, CA.

If someone is getting outpatient detoxification they must go to the center helping them with their detoxification daily or at least 5 days per week in most situations. Outpatient detoxification services are either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for a person who needs to maintain a regular school or work routine. Certain facilities also offer ways to receive detox treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detox services and try to prevent relapse.

An average time people remain in outpatient detox is about a week. Some facilities use medication assisted detox methods while others offer medication free detoxification treatement. At times when medications are necessary to prevent life threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Otherwise, medical staff at the program help clients manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are safely detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detoxification in Olema is more adaptable for apparent reasons, a serious disadvantage is that clients are at a higher risk of relapse due to the access they maintain to drugs. Ideally, clients will then go into a full rehabilitation program to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
