Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Garfield, GA.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation centers in Garfield have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility is that individuals may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater among individuals who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
