Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Carl Junction, MO.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in Carl Junction offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among clients who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment program have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
