Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - San Luis Obispo, CA.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in San Luis Obispo offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation center is that many people may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among people who only go through short term rehabilitation . Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation center have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
