Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Doolittle, MO.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

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

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among individuals who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment facility have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
