Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Collegeville, MN.

If a person is getting outpatient detoxification they travel to the facility helping them with their detox every day or at least five days a week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification is either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it ideal for a person who needs to maintain a normal school or work routine. Some programs also provide ways to receive treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and relapse prevention help.

A standard time individuals remain in outpatient detox is approximately a week. Some programs use medically assisted detoxification methods while others provide medication free detoxification services. There are times when meds are needed to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Alternatively, staff at the program help people manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Collegeville is more flexible for obvious reasons, a serious drawback is that individuals 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 deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is finished.
