Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and lasts from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facilities in Ute have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment 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 rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab facility is that people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Relapse rates are higher with individuals who only receive short term rehabilitation . Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase 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 progress in their new sober lifestyle.
