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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Shawnee offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab facility is that many individuals may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with people who only receive short term treatment . Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab center have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
