Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used for addiction treatment that does not last long and lasts from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who can't endure long-term rehab.
Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Orlando offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that 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 rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.
Relapse rates are understandably higher among clients who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
