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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab centers in Oakland Acres offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab facility is that many people 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 completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher among people who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
