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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

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

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among people who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
