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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used for addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation centers in Stanford have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that clients may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with clients who only get short term treatment . People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation center have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
