Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - West Liberty, WV.

If someone is receiving outpatient detoxification they must go to the facility assisting them with their detoxification daily or at least 5 days a week in most situations. Outpatient detox services are either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for a person who needs to keep a regular work or school schedule. Some programs may also offer options to participate in treatment in a choice of regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detox services and try to prevent relapse.

An average amount of time clients remain in outpatient detoxification is about 7 days. Some facilities use medication assisted detoxification methods while others offer drug free detox treatement. There are times when medications are needed to avert life threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Otherwise, medical staff at the program help clients manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detox in West Liberty is more adaptable for obvious reasons, a serious disadvantage is that clients are at a higher chance of relapse due to the access they maintain to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, clients will then go into a full rehabilitation facility to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
