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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation centers in Green Ridge offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab facility is that clients may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with people who only receive 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 rehabilitation center have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
