Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Carlton, WA.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Carlton have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation center is that many clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher among clients who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
