Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and lasts from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who can't endure long-term rehab.
Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in Safety Harbor offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab facility is that many clients 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 rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.
Relapse rates are greater with people who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
