Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Alvaton, KY.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

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

Recidivism rates are higher among people who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
