Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Panama City, FL.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in Panama City have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that clients 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 treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among people who only go through short term rehabilitation . People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
