Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Ellington, MO.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in Ellington have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation center is that people may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with individuals who only receive short term treatment . Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
