Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Arlington, WI.

If a person is getting outpatient detoxification they must go to the facility assisting them with their detox every day or at least 5 days per week in most situations. Outpatient detox services are either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it perfect for someone who needs to keep a regular work or school routine. Some facilities also provide ways to participate in detox treatment in a choice of regular 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 programs use medically assisted detoxification approaches while others offer medication free detoxification services. There are times when meds are necessary to prevent life-threatening withdrawal problems, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Otherwise, medical staff at the facility help clients handle their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detoxification in Arlington is more flexible for apparent reasons, a severe disadvantage is that people are at a greater risk of relapse due to the access they keep to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, clients will transition into a comprehensive treatment program to deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
