Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Alpine, CA.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in Alpine have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation program is that clients 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 fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with people who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
