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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option and for individuals who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation centers in Paradox offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment 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 initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with individuals who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
