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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Oakman 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 people will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation program is that people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher among people who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment program have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
