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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used for addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Exira offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility is that many clients may still be in the beginning phases 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 harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab 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.
