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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Foley offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that many people may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with people who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment center at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
