Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Frankfort, KY.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.

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

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with clients who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
