Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Portola, CA.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehab facilities in Portola have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation center is that many individuals 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 completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

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