Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - College Springs, IA.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facilities in College Springs have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehab center is that many individuals may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among people who only go through short term rehab . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
