Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Point Lay, AK.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used for addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Point Lay have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation program is that clients may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher among people who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment 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.
