Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Andalusia, AL.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in Andalusia offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with clients who only get short term rehabilitation . Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
