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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Heflin offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation center is that clients may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with clients who only go through short term treatment . People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
