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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation centers in Columbus have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehab program is that many people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

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