Short Term 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 an inpatient or residential treatment center. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who can't endure long-term treatment.
Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Fort Oglethorpe have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation program is that many clients may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are higher with clients who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab center have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
