Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Carmi, IL.

If an individual is receiving outpatient detox they travel to the center assisting them with their detoxification every day or at least 5 days per week in most situations. Outpatient detoxification is either done in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for a person who needs to maintain a regular work or school schedule. Certain facilities may also offer options to participate in detoxification treatment in a choice of regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and prevent relapse.

A standard amount of time individuals remain in outpatient detoxification is approximately 7 days. Some facilities use medically assisted detox methods while others offer medication free detoxification services. There are times when medications are needed to avert life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes an issue. Otherwise, medical staff at the center help individuals handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detoxification in Carmi is more flexible for obvious reasons, a very severe disadvantage is that people are at a higher risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, individuals will then go into a comprehensive treatment facility to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
