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

If an individual is getting outpatient detoxification they travel to the facility assisting them through detox every day or at least five days a week in most situations. Outpatient detox services are either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it ideal for a person who must keep a normal school or work routine. Some programs also provide options to participate in detoxification treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detoxification services and prevent relapse.

An average time clients remain in outpatient detoxification is about a week. Some programs use medication assisted detoxification approaches while others offer medication free detox treatement. At times when medications are needed to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Otherwise, medical staff at the center help individuals manage their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are safely detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detoxification in Unity is more flexible for obvious reasons, a severe drawback is that people are at a greater risk of relapse due to the access they maintain to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, clients will transition into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is finished.
