Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Ridgecrest, CA.

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

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab centers in Ridgecrest 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 services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility is that people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only go through short term rehabilitation . People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
