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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Angels have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehab program is that clients may still be experiencing the beginning phases 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 specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

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