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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in Powderhorn offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation center is that many clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with people who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment program have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
