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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used for addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Royston have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that many people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among clients who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
