Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Alta, CA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in Alta offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that individuals may still be experiencing 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 moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only get short term rehab . Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center 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.
