Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Fairburn, GA.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option and for people who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab centers in Fairburn offer intensive 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 rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation center is that people may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with clients who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
