Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Vero Beach, FL.

If a person is receiving outpatient detoxification they must go to the center helping them through detoxification every day or at minimum 5 days per week in most cases. Outpatient detox is either done in the evening or daytime, which makes it ideal for someone who must maintain a normal work or school schedule. Some facilities also offer options to get detoxification treatment in a choice of normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and help prevent a relapse.

An average amount of time individuals remain in outpatient detoxification is about seven days. Some programs use medication assisted detox methods while others provide medication free detox services. There are times when meds are needed to prevent deadly withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Alternatively, medical staff at the facility help clients manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxed and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Vero Beach is more flexible for apparent reasons, a severe disadvantage is that clients are at a higher risk of relapse due to the access they maintain to drugs. Ideally, individuals will transition into a full rehabilitation facility to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
