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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option and for individuals who can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Sterling have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab program is that 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 fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among clients who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
