Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - South Dos Palos, CA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used for addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in South Dos Palos have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehab center is that clients may still be in the initial phases 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 people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher among people who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
