Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Meyersdale, PA.

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab facilities in Meyersdale have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility is that many clients may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
