Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Hartselle, AL.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Hartselle have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility is that people may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among clients who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
