Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Spencer, IA.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in Spencer offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation center is that people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only go through short term rehab . People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment center have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
