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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used for addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehab centers in Williamsburg offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation center is that individuals may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment program at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
