Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Alton, KS.

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

A standard amount of time clients remain in outpatient detoxification is approximately a week. A number of programs use medically assisted detoxification methods while others provide medication free detoxification treatement. There are times when medications are necessary to avert deadly withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Otherwise, medical staff at the center help individuals handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detoxification in Alton is more adaptable for apparent reasons, a very severe drawback is that clients are at a greater chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, clients will transition into a full rehabilitation facility to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
