Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - North Star, MI.

If an individual is getting outpatient detoxification they must go to the facility helping them with their detox every day or at minimum five days per week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification services are either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it perfect for someone who must maintain a regular school or work routine. Some programs may provide options to participate in detoxification treatment in a choice of regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and relapse prevention help.

A standard amount of time individuals participate in outpatient detoxification is about a week. Some programs use medication assisted detox methods while others offer medication free detox services. At times when meds are needed to prevent life threatening withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Otherwise, staff at the center help individuals handle their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detoxification in North Star is more flexible for obvious reasons, a very serious disadvantage is that clients are at a higher risk of relapse due to the access they keep to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, clients will transition into a comprehensive treatment program to deal with the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
