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

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

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Andover offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher among clients who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
