Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Forest Park, GA.

If an individual is getting outpatient detoxification they travel to the facility helping them through detoxification daily or at least five days a week in most situations. Outpatient detoxification is either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for someone who must keep a normal school or work routine. Some facilities may offer options to participate in detox treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detox services and help prevent a relapse.

An average amount of time individuals remain in outpatient detoxification is about 7 days. Some programs use medication assisted detoxification approaches while others provide medication free detox services. At times when medications are needed to prevent life threatening withdrawal problems, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Otherwise, medical staff at the facility help clients manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxed and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Forest Park is more adaptable for obvious reasons, a serious drawback is that individuals are at a greater risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, individuals will then go into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to address the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
