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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who can't commit to long-term treatment.

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

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