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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is a great financial option and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in El Portal have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy 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 and alcohol rehabilitation center is that many people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with clients who only receive short term treatment . Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
