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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehab centers in Vandalia offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility is that people may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with individuals who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
