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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Dorris offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation program is that individuals may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among clients who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment facility have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
