Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Engelhard, NC.

If a person is receiving outpatient detoxification they must go to the facility helping them with their detoxification every day or at least 5 days per week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification is either done in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for someone who needs to keep a regular school or work schedule. Certain programs may offer options to receive detox treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and prevent relapse.

A standard amount of time people participate in outpatient detox is approximately seven days. Some facilities use medication assisted detox methods while others offer drug free detox services. There are times when medications are necessary to avert life threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Alternatively, medical staff at the program help individuals handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxed and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Engelhard is more flexible for obvious reasons, a very serious disadvantage is that clients are at a greater risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to drugs. Ideally, individuals will transition into a full rehabilitation program to deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
