Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab centers in Augusta offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation center 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 stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.
Relapse rates are understandably greater among individuals who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab facility have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
