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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Fullerton 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 individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehab center is that clients may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with individuals who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
