Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Forest City, IA.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used for addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Forest City 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 clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehabilitation center is that individuals may still be experiencing 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 individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with people who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment facility have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
