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

If someone is getting outpatient detox they travel to the center assisting them through detoxification daily or at least 5 days a week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification is either done in the evening or daytime, which makes it ideal for a person who needs to keep a regular work or school schedule. Some programs also offer options to receive treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and prevent relapse.

An average time people remain in outpatient detoxification is approximately seven days. Some facilities use medically assisted detoxification methods while others offer medication free detoxification services. There are times when medications are needed to avert deadly withdrawal problems, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes an issue. Otherwise, staff at the facility help clients manage their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detoxification in Gonvick is more adaptable for obvious reasons, a severe drawback is that individuals are at a greater risk of relapse due to the access they keep to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, clients will transition into a full rehabilitation facility to deal with the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
