Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Rancho Santa Margarita, CA.

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used for addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in Rancho Santa Margarita offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehab center is that clients may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among people who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
