Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Republic, MO.

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation centers in Republic 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 individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation center is that individuals may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with individuals who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
