Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Hume, VA.

If a person is receiving outpatient detoxification they travel to the facility assisting them with their detox daily or at minimum 5 days per week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification services are either done in the evening or daytime, which makes it ideal for someone who needs to maintain a regular work or school routine. Some facilities may also provide options to participate in treatment in a choice of normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detoxification services and help prevent a relapse.

An average amount of time clients remain in outpatient detoxification is about 7 days. Some facilities use medically assisted detoxification approaches while others offer medication free detox services. There are times when medications are necessary to avert life-threatening withdrawal problems, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Alternatively, medical staff at the facility help people manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxed and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Hume is more adaptable for obvious reasons, a serious drawback is that individuals are at a greater risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, people will transition into a log-term or short-term recovery program to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
