Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Alton, IA.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

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

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with clients who only get short term treatment . People who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab program have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
