Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Hamilton, GA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation centers in Hamilton have intensive 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 be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation center is that clients may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among individuals who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
