Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and lasts from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who cannot commit to long-term treatment.
Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation programs in West Point have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility is that many clients may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.
Relapse rates are understandably greater with individuals who only receive short term rehabilitation . People who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
