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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who can't commit to long-term treatment.

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

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