Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Los Alamitos, CA.

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

Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in Los Alamitos have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that many people 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 completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among people who only receive short term rehab . People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
