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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in Monrovia have 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 services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab program is that clients may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. 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 understandably higher among clients who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
