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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehab facilities in Brisbane offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that many clients may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with people who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment center at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
