Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and lasts from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who can't endure long-term rehab.
Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in Canon City offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy 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 rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that many people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Relapse rates are higher with people who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment center at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
