Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Pettigrew, AR.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in Pettigrew have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that many clients may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with individuals who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
