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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in Alta offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that many people may still be in 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 harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with clients who only receive short term treatment . Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
