Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Mershon, GA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in Mershon have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that people may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among clients who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
