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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in Fort Gordon have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center is that many individuals may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among individuals who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
