Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Newport, TN.

If a person is receiving outpatient detoxification they travel to the facility assisting them with their detoxification every day or at least 5 days a week in most cases. Outpatient detox services are either done in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for a person who must keep a normal school or work routine. Some programs may offer ways to get detoxification treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detox services and try to prevent relapse.

A standard amount of time people participate in outpatient detoxification is about 7 days. A number of programs use medically assisted detox approaches while others offer medication free detoxification services. At times when medications are necessary to avert life threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Otherwise, staff at the center help individuals handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxed and balanced.

While outpatient detoxification in Newport is more flexible for obvious reasons, a serious drawback is that clients are at a higher risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, clients will transition into a comprehensive treatment facility to deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
