Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Elkmont, AL.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Elkmont offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab program is that many individuals may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with people who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
