Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Allentown, GA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used for addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

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

Relapse rates are greater among people who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
