Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Pierce, CO.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in Pierce offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab facility is that people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
