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

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in Gibson offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that people may still be in the initial stages 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 timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with individuals who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
