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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment center. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facilities in Piedmont have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation center is that many people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with people who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
