Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Epping, ND.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used for addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

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

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among individuals who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment facility have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
