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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Monticello offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that many people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

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