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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used for addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in Armstrong have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that clients may still be experiencing the initial 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 moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among clients who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
