Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Atkins, IA.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 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 for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in Atkins have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program 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 rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among clients who only go through short term rehabilitation . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
