Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Evinston, FL.

If an individual is getting outpatient detoxification they must go to the facility helping them through detoxification daily or at minimum 5 days a week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification is either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it perfect for someone who needs to keep a normal work or school schedule. Certain facilities may also offer options to get detoxification treatment in a choice of regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and help prevent a relapse.

An average time clients remain in outpatient detoxification is about seven days. A number of programs use medication assisted detoxification methods while others offer medication free detox services. At times when medications are necessary to prevent life threatening withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Otherwise, medical staff at the program help clients handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detoxification in Evinston is more flexible for apparent reasons, a very serious disadvantage is that clients are at a greater risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, individuals will transition into a comprehensive treatment program to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
