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

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

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Kingdom City offer 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 be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among individuals who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
