Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Alden, IA.

Short Term drug rehab is a term used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Alden offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehab center is that individuals may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with individuals who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment program have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
