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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab facilities in Mead offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation program is that many people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with clients who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab program 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.
