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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Georgetown offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehab program is that many people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with clients who only go through short term treatment . People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
