Toronto Medical Detox Explains the Differences between Inpatient and Ambulatory Medical Detox

Successfully managing the detox and withdrawal phase are critical steps in overcoming addiction, however not enough people dealing with addiction are aware of the options available. Leading Canadian detox clinic explains the different models and what they involve.

Medical Detox Toronto, a private medically-supervised drug detox excellence center, shares what Canadians struggling with addiction should expect from various models of medical detox in an effort to reach more people and empower them to seek the help and support that best suits their needs and their case.

Medical detox is the mandatory step to recovery. Inpatient services consist of round-the-clock care provided at a live-in facility and supervised by doctors while the drugs are working their way out of the person’s system. Outpatient programs can be a valuable option in not-so-severe cases and they involve the patient undergoing medical treatment during the day and being released at the end of each afternoon. However, in order to decide the best course of action, an expert assessment is required.

Offering additional information, a key Medical Detox Toronto representative said “Detoxification is a pivotal step toward recovery. Traditionally, this was done in an inpatient setting where the patient living with addiction was offered the full attention of a medical staff while they stayed there for the entire time of the process. With rising addiction rates, particularly opioids and alcohol and the need for more flexible, customized solutions, we have found that in specific cases people benefit more from an ambulatory model. By incorporating the patient’s living environment and their families into the detox process, we have seen real positive changes. Making the right decision between the two models of care is crucial in achieving long-term sobriety and it should be a collaborative effort between medical professionals, the patient’s preferences and actual facts”.

There are various factors that can help patients and experts altogether decide the most appropriate course of treatment. The substance a person is addicted to, the length of time and frequency of use, current physical and mental health, other drug treatments they might follow, financial implications, social situation are key in determining the best course of action. Only patients with mild addictions can be able to detoxify themselves in the comfort of their home, with regular visits to the center for medical support and progress monitoring.
