Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Windham, CT.

If an individual is receiving outpatient detoxification they must go to the facility helping them with their 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 perfect for someone who needs to maintain a normal school or work schedule. Some programs may provide options to receive treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and help prevent a relapse.

An average amount of time individuals remain in outpatient detoxification is about 7 days. A number of programs use medication assisted detoxification methods while others provide drug free detoxification treatement. At times when medications are needed to prevent deadly withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes an issue. Otherwise, medical staff at the program help clients manage their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are safely detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detoxification in Windham is more flexible for apparent reasons, a severe drawback is that clients are at a higher risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, clients will transition into a full rehabilitation facility to deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
