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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehab 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 rehabilitation.

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

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