Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Agency, IA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in Agency have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which 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 drug rehab center is that people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with individuals who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
