Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Athol, ID.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Athol have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehab program is that individuals may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among individuals who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation center have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
