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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehab programs in Calamus offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center is that many clients may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with clients who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
