Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used for addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who cannot endure long-term rehab.
Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Alleene offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that individuals may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Relapse rates are understandably higher among clients who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
