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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation program. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in Lenox have 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 treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that people may still be experiencing the beginning phases 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 moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater among people who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
