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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

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

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