Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Golden, CO.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Golden have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short 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 substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher among people who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
