Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Port Richey, FL.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Port Richey have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among individuals who only receive short term treatment . Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
