Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Decatur, AL.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used for addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation centers in Decatur offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially 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 treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation program is that many individuals may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among clients who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
