Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Belvidere, IL.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Belvidere have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that many people may still be experiencing 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 treatment within the 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 clients who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
