Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for individuals who cannot commit to long-term rehab.
Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in San Francisco offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab program is that clients may still be in the initial 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 people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Relapse rates are greater with clients who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
