Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Century City, CA.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for clients who cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Century City offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehab center is that individuals may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with individuals who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
