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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in Elgin offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that people may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with clients who only receive short term treatment . People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
