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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option and for people who can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Independence offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that individuals 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 treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with people who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
