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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

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

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among clients who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
