Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option and for clients who can't commit to long-term treatment.
Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facilities in Malcom offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab center is that many clients may still be experiencing the initial 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 more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are understandably higher with clients who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
