Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Winnabow, NC.

If a person is getting outpatient detoxification they must go to the center helping them through detoxification daily or at minimum 5 days a week in most cases. Outpatient detox services are either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for a person who needs to keep a regular work or school schedule. Some programs also provide ways to participate in detox treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detox services and try to prevent relapse.

A standard time people participate in outpatient detox is about seven days. Some programs use medication assisted detox methods while others offer drug free detox services. There are times when meds are necessary to avert life threatening withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Alternatively, medical staff at the program help clients manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Winnabow is more flexible for obvious reasons, a severe disadvantage is that people are at a greater chance of relapse due to the access they maintain to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, people will then go into a full rehabilitation program to address the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
