Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Dover AFB, DE.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Dover AFB have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility is that people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among people who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
