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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Pelham have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that many clients may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
