Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Plymouth, FL.

If someone is receiving outpatient detoxification they travel to the facility helping them with their detox every day or at least 5 days per week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification is either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it perfect for someone who must maintain a normal school or work schedule. Certain facilities also offer ways to participate in detox treatment in a choice of normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and try to prevent relapse.

An average amount of time clients remain in outpatient detoxification is about a week. Some programs use medically assisted detoxification approaches while others provide drug free detox services. There are times when medications are necessary to prevent deadly withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Otherwise, medical staff at the program help people handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxified and stabilized.

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