Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Wellington, UT.

If a person is getting outpatient detox they must go to the center assisting them through detox daily or at minimum five days per week in most situations. Outpatient detoxification is either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for someone who needs to maintain a normal work or school routine. Some programs also provide ways to participate in detox treatment in a choice of normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and help prevent a relapse.

A standard amount of time people remain in outpatient detoxification is about 7 days. A number of programs use medically assisted detox approaches while others offer medication free detox services. At 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. Otherwise, staff at the facility help people handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxified and balanced.

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