Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Parsippany, NJ.

If an individual is receiving outpatient detox they travel to the facility assisting them with their detox every day or at least five days a week in most cases. Outpatient detox services are either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it ideal for someone who must maintain a normal school or work schedule. Some programs may also provide ways to participate in detoxification treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and prevent relapse.

A standard amount of time clients participate in outpatient detox is approximately a week. Some programs use medically assisted detoxification approaches while others provide medication free detoxification services. At times when medications are necessary to prevent deadly withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Alternatively, staff at the program help people handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Parsippany is more flexible for obvious reasons, a severe disadvantage is that people are at a greater chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, clients will then go into a comprehensive treatment program to address the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
