Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.
Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Joes offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehab facility is that many individuals 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 treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are understandably higher among clients who only receive short term rehab . Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
