Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Crestone, CO.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Crestone offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab center is that many people 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 clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with individuals who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
