Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Harmony, ME.

If someone is getting outpatient detoxification they must go to the center assisting them with their detox every day or at minimum five days a week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification is either done in the evening or daytime, which makes it ideal for someone who needs to maintain a regular school or work routine. Certain facilities also provide ways to get detox treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and try to prevent relapse.

An average time people remain in outpatient detoxification is about a week. Some facilities use medication assisted detox approaches while others provide drug free detox treatement. There are times when medications are needed to avert life threatening withdrawal problems, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Alternatively, staff at the program help people manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Harmony is more flexible for obvious reasons, a severe drawback is that individuals are at a higher risk of relapse due to the access they keep to drugs. Ideally, individuals will then go into a full rehabilitation program to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
