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

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in Harpersville have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation program is that individuals may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with people who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab program have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
