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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehab facilities in Columbia have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that many individuals may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

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