Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Aberdeen, SD.

If an individual is receiving outpatient detox they must go to the center helping them through detox every day or at minimum 5 days per week in most cases. Outpatient detox is either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it ideal for someone who must maintain a regular work or school schedule. Some facilities may offer options to participate in detoxification treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and prevent relapse.

A standard amount of time people remain in outpatient detoxification is about seven days. Some programs use medically assisted detoxification approaches while others provide medication free detoxification treatement. At times when medications are needed to avert deadly withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Otherwise, staff at the program help individuals handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxed and balanced.

While outpatient detoxification in Aberdeen is more flexible for obvious reasons, a serious disadvantage is that clients are at a greater risk of relapse due to the access they keep to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, clients will then go into a comprehensive treatment facility to deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is finished.
