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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Harrisburg offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that many people may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with individuals who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
