Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Sierra City, CA.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment center. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Sierra City offer 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 clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehab facility is that clients may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among clients who only go through short term treatment . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
