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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in Matlock offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that many clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with clients who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
