Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and lasts from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who can't commit to long-term treatment.
Most short-term drug rehabilitation centers in Briarwood have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief 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 substance abuse rehab facility is that many clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are higher among people who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab program have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
