Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Ketchum, OK.

If a person is receiving outpatient detox they must go to the center helping them through detoxification daily or at minimum 5 days a week in most situations. Outpatient detox services are either done in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for a person who must maintain a normal work or school schedule. Some programs may also offer options to participate in detoxification treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and try to prevent relapse.

A standard amount of time people participate in outpatient detox is about 7 days. Some programs use medically assisted detox methods while others offer medication free detox services. There are times when meds are necessary to avert deadly withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Otherwise, staff at the program help people handle their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Ketchum is more adaptable for apparent reasons, a serious disadvantage is that clients are at a greater risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to drugs. Ideally, people will transition into a full rehabilitation facility to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
