Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Carthage, AR.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation programs in Carthage 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 services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that clients may still be experiencing the beginning 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 clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher among clients who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
