Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Glen Ridge, NJ.

If someone is receiving outpatient detoxification they travel to the facility assisting them through detox every day or at minimum five days per week in most cases. Outpatient detox services are either done in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for someone who must maintain a normal work or school routine. Some facilities may also provide options to receive treatment in a choice of normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and prevent relapse.

A standard time clients participate in outpatient detox is about a week. Some programs use medically assisted detoxification 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 an issue. Otherwise, staff at the facility help individuals manage their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Glen Ridge is more flexible for apparent reasons, a very serious drawback is that individuals are at a greater chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, individuals will transition into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to deal with the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
