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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehab centers in Penn Valley 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 people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that many clients may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among clients who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
