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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Macedonia have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehab center is that many clients may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with people who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
