Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment center. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Los Angeles have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that individuals may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are higher with individuals who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
