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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who cannot commit to long-term rehab.

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

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
