Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - El Dorado Hills, CA.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in El Dorado Hills 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 individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehab facility is that people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
