Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Sheldon, IA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in Sheldon offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation center is that clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as clients 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 rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation center 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.
