Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Palatka, FL.

If someone is getting outpatient detox they must go to the center helping them through detox every day or at minimum 5 days per week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification 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. Some programs also provide ways to receive detox treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and help prevent a relapse.

A standard time individuals remain in outpatient detox is approximately a week. A number of facilities use medically assisted detox approaches while others offer drug free detoxification services. At times when medications are needed to prevent life threatening withdrawal problems, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes an issue. Alternatively, staff at the center help people handle their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Palatka is more flexible for obvious reasons, a very severe drawback is that clients are at a greater chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to drugs. Ideally, people will transition into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to address the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
