Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Rural Retreat, VA.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Rural Retreat offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation program 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 detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher among clients who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
