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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option and for individuals who can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in Evansdale have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab facility is that individuals 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 rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment center at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
