Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and lasts from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term drug rehab centers in Winterhaven have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that many individuals may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Relapse rates are understandably higher with clients who only get short term rehab . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
