Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Ivanhoe, VA.

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehab facilities in Ivanhoe offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short 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 substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that many people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with clients who only receive short term treatment . People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
