Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Platte Woods, MO.

Short Term drug rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Platte Woods offer intensive 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 services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab program is that many individuals may still be experiencing the initial 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 timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among clients who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
