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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Placerville offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment 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 services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab program is that many people may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only get short term treatment . Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
