Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Berthoud, CO.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Berthoud offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that many people may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with people who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
