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

If someone is getting outpatient detoxification they must go to the facility helping them with their detoxification every day or at minimum five days per week in most cases. Outpatient detox services are either done in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for a person who needs to keep a normal work or school routine. Some facilities also provide options to participate in treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detox services and relapse prevention help.

A standard amount of time clients participate in outpatient detoxification is about a week. A number of facilities use medically assisted detoxification approaches while others provide drug free detoxification services. There are times when meds are necessary to avert deadly withdrawal problems, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Otherwise, medical staff at the facility help people manage their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Atchison is more adaptable for apparent reasons, a serious disadvantage is that clients are at a greater risk of relapse due to the access they keep to drugs. Ideally, clients will transition into a log-term or short-term recovery program to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
