Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Acworth, GA.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Acworth have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehab facility is that clients may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among individuals who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
