Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Apalachicola, FL.

If an individual is receiving outpatient detoxification they must go to the facility assisting them through detoxification daily or at minimum 5 days per week in most situations. Outpatient detox services are either done in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for someone who must maintain a normal work or school schedule. Certain facilities may also provide ways to get detox treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and prevent relapse.

An average amount of time people participate in outpatient detox is about a week. A number of facilities use medically assisted detoxification approaches while others offer medication free detoxification services. At times when medications are needed to prevent life threatening withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Otherwise, medical staff at the center help people handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are safely detoxified and balanced.

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