Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Carrington, ND.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in Carrington have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehab center is that individuals may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater among people who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
