Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Avenal, CA.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Avenal have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which 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 services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehab program is that many clients may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with clients who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
