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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in Flintstone offer 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 individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehab center is that many clients may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with people who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
