Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Remsen, IA.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Remsen have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility is that many clients may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among people who only get 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 rehab program at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
