Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Newcastle, ME.

If a person is getting outpatient detoxification they must go to the center helping them through detoxification daily or at least five days per week in most situations. Outpatient detox services are either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for a person who must maintain a regular work or school routine. Certain programs may offer options to get detoxification treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detox services and relapse prevention help.

A standard amount of time individuals remain in outpatient detox is approximately a week. Some programs use medication assisted detoxification approaches while others provide drug free detox services. At times when medications are necessary to avert life threatening withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Otherwise, staff at the program help clients handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxed and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Newcastle is more flexible for apparent reasons, a serious disadvantage is that individuals are at a greater risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, clients will then go into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to address the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
