Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Lincolnton, GA.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab facilities in Lincolnton offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center is that many individuals may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with people who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment facility have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
