Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Shungnak, AK.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Shungnak offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that many individuals may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab program at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
