Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Pacifica, CA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in Pacifica have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that many individuals 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 fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among people who only receive short term rehab . Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
