Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Branch, MI.

If an individual is getting outpatient detox they travel to the center helping them through detox daily or at least 5 days a week in most cases. Outpatient detox services are either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for someone who needs to maintain a normal work or school routine. Certain programs may provide options to receive detoxification treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and help prevent a relapse.

An average time clients remain in outpatient detoxification is about 7 days. Some facilities use medically assisted detox approaches while others provide medication free detox services. There are times when meds are needed to avert life-threatening withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes an issue. Alternatively, medical staff at the program help clients manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Branch is more adaptable for apparent reasons, a very severe drawback is that individuals are at a greater chance of relapse due to the access they maintain to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, people will transition into a full rehabilitation program to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
