Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Marshall, MI.

If a person is receiving outpatient detoxification they must go to the center assisting them with their detoxification daily or at minimum five days a week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification is either done in the daytime or evening, which makes it perfect for a person who must keep a normal work or school schedule. Some facilities also offer options to participate in detox treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and relapse prevention help.

An average time people participate in outpatient detoxification is about seven days. Some facilities use medication assisted detox approaches while others provide medication free detox services. There are times when meds are necessary to prevent life threatening withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Otherwise, medical staff at the program help people handle their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxed and stabilized.

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