Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Unalakleet, AK.

If someone is getting outpatient detox they travel to the center assisting them through detox daily or at least 5 days per week in most situations. Outpatient detox is either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it ideal for a person who must maintain a normal school or work routine. Some facilities also offer options to participate in detox treatment in a choice of normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and relapse prevention help.

A standard time individuals remain in outpatient detoxification is approximately 7 days. Some facilities use medically assisted detox methods while others provide medication free detoxification services. At times when medications are needed to prevent deadly withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Otherwise, medical staff at the center help clients handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detoxification in Unalakleet is more adaptable for obvious reasons, a very serious disadvantage is that people are at a greater risk of relapse due to the access they maintain to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, clients will then go into a log-term or short-term recovery program to deal with the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is finished.
