Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - New Tazewell, TN.

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

A standard time people remain in outpatient detoxification is approximately seven days. A number of facilities use medication assisted detox approaches while others offer drug free detox services. There are times when medications are needed to prevent deadly withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Otherwise, medical staff at the center help people manage their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in New Tazewell is more flexible for obvious reasons, a serious drawback is that clients are at a higher risk of relapse due to the access they maintain to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, clients will transition into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
