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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Selma have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab center is that many people may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with individuals who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
