Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used for addiction treatment that is brief, and lasts from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. 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 substance abuse rehab programs in Poyen offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Recidivism rates are understandably greater with clients who only get short term treatment . People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
