Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Alliance, NC.

If someone is getting outpatient detox they must go to the facility assisting them through detox every day or at least 5 days a week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification is either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for a person who needs to maintain a normal school or work schedule. Certain programs also provide ways to participate in detox treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and help prevent a relapse.

An average amount of time clients remain in outpatient detox is approximately 7 days. Some programs use medically assisted detoxification approaches while others offer medication free detox services. There are times when meds are necessary to prevent life threatening withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Alternatively, staff at the facility help people manage their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are safely detoxed and balanced.

While outpatient detoxification in Alliance is more flexible for obvious reasons, a severe drawback is that individuals are at a higher chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, clients will transition into a comprehensive treatment program to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
