Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Kirkman, IA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation program. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab facilities in Kirkman offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility is that people 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 specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
