Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Tivoli, NY.

If an individual is receiving outpatient detox they travel to the facility helping them with their detox daily or at minimum five days per week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification is either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it perfect for someone who must maintain a normal school or work schedule. Some programs may also offer options to participate in treatment in a choice of regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and help prevent a relapse.

A standard time individuals participate in outpatient detox is about seven days. A number of programs use medication assisted detoxification approaches while others provide medication free detoxification treatement. There are times when meds are necessary to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Alternatively, medical staff at the facility help clients manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Tivoli is more flexible for obvious reasons, a severe drawback is that clients are at a greater risk of relapse due to the access they keep to drugs. Ideally, people will then go into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to address the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
