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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in Placerville have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation center 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 treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher among individuals who only receive short term rehab . Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
