Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Donnellson, IA.

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

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

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with people who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
