Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Highland, UT.

If a person is getting outpatient detox they must go to the center assisting them with their detoxification daily or at least 5 days a week in most situations. Outpatient detox is either done in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for someone who needs to keep a regular work or school schedule. Some programs may provide options to receive detoxification treatment in a choice of normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detoxification services and help prevent a relapse.

A standard time individuals remain in outpatient detox is about 7 days. Some facilities use medically assisted detoxification approaches while others provide drug free detox treatement. At times when medications are necessary to avert life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes an issue. Otherwise, medical staff at the program help individuals handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxed and balanced.

While outpatient detoxification in Highland is more flexible for obvious reasons, a serious disadvantage is that individuals are at a greater chance of relapse due to the access they keep to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, individuals will transition into a comprehensive treatment program to address the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
