Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - American Falls, ID.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facilities in American Falls have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehab program is that clients may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with individuals who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment center 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.
