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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation programs in Cope offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that many clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with individuals who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
