Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Morgan, GA.

If a person is receiving outpatient detoxification they must go to the facility assisting them with their detox daily or at least five days a week in most cases. Outpatient detox is either done in the daytime or evening, which makes it perfect for someone who must keep a normal work or school routine. Some programs may also offer ways to participate in detox treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and try to prevent relapse.

A standard amount of time clients remain in outpatient detox is about 7 days. Some programs use medication assisted detox methods while others provide medication free detoxification 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 a problem. Alternatively, staff at the program help clients handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detoxification in Morgan is more flexible for obvious reasons, a very serious drawback is that individuals are at a higher chance of relapse due to the access they maintain to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, clients will then go into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
