Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Dover, GA.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Dover offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehab center is that people 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 harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among clients who only go through short term treatment . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab program at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
