Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Belton, MO.

If an individual is getting outpatient detoxification they travel to the center helping them with their detoxification every day or at minimum 5 days per week in most cases. Outpatient detox services are either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for a person who must maintain a normal school or work schedule. Some programs may also offer options to participate in treatment in a choice of regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and try to prevent relapse.

A standard amount of time clients participate in outpatient detoxification is approximately a week. A number of programs use medically assisted detox approaches while others provide drug free detox services. There are times when meds are needed to avert life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Alternatively, medical staff at the facility help clients handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Belton is more adaptable for obvious reasons, a severe disadvantage is that clients are at a higher chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, individuals will transition into a full rehabilitation program to deal with the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
