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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in Piedmont have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that individuals may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab 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 higher with individuals who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
