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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used for addiction rehab that does not last long and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Whittemore have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that people may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among clients who only go through short term rehab . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
