Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Harrisburg, SD.

If an individual is receiving outpatient detox they travel to the facility assisting them with their detox every day or at minimum 5 days a week in most situations. Outpatient detox is either done in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for someone who must keep a regular work or school routine. Some programs may also provide options to participate in treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detox services and help prevent a relapse.

A standard amount of time people participate in outpatient detox is approximately a week. Some programs use medication assisted detox approaches while others offer drug free detoxification treatement. There are times when medications are needed to avert life threatening withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes an issue. Otherwise, medical staff at the center help individuals manage their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Harrisburg is more flexible for obvious reasons, a very serious drawback is that people are at a higher chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to drugs. Ideally, individuals will transition into a log-term or short-term recovery program to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
